Worst agency

Currently renting a house through Connells. I am truly disappointed! They keep promising us that the constructor will come ‘today’ to fix reported issues but no one ever shows up and it’s been 5 weeks! No apologies either!

Renting for 6 years - worst estate agent I have used in that time.

Twice in one year 2 separate agents have failed to show up an inspection they arranged. Took money for an extension of the rental contract, but didn't tell us landlord hadn't agreed until 4 months later. Utterly incompetent and no communication.

Absolutely rubbish estate agent

Absolutely rubbish, I put an offer in on a house and they declined it because I couldn't view it on a certain day that suited them!Oh well there's plenty of estate agents, these are not one of use. Utterly unprofessional

Absolutely terrible

Absolutely terrible. Andrew Scott of Connells refused to put a rental valuation on our property. He was then stubborn and arrogant when we queried it. I have an EXTREMELY dim view of this business...

They are fraudulent

They are fraudulent. They keep your holding fee and return to tell you that your reference didn't go thru.

Awful service

Awful service. No feed back. One viewing in 3 months. No feedback from that. They’re getting no money fro me. Take me to court. I’ve recorded all calls. Abysmal amateurs. Need new manager.

Extremely Disappointed as landlord.

Extremely Disappointed as landlord.Worst service ever. Lack of Communication which in some cases cost to landlords. Being the first time landlord they don't think even once to cheat you by making false promises. I would never recommend anyone to Connells.

Absolute rubbish

Don't deserve any stars. Treat tenants as rubbish. No hot water for 2 months for tenant. No parking permits. Slow to respond to any fault, don't bother visiting tenants. No local tradesman support. Keep changing contacts

Very much worth the fees

The specialist Housing Society I work for uses Connells throughout the UK in both a sale and market letting context. The fact that we choose to work with Connells with so much alternative choice available is testament to their quality

utterly rubbish

utterly rubbish. charged £600 in total for the service and didn't bother to do the important task of submitting my mortgage application. Ignored requests from solicitors and the advisor still hasn't even acknowledged he failed to do his job.

Best Avoided

Connells are very very poor on integrity. They will tell you anything and everything that comes to their tongue to sign you up and then not walk the talk. I should have checked the reviews before entertaining them.

Basically glorified rental scammers

Attempting to keep tenancy deposit despite multiple requests to reimburse.Attempted to charge admin fees to continue out tenancy when we moved to a 6 month rolling contract

Shambles

Shambles. Which sums up much of this country. Here's the latest: customer service number on their website, that just rings and rings with noone picking up. Laugh out loud. Dark times.

I have encountered better customer service from people working on checkouts .These characters will twist their encounters with you to suit their agenda often denying what they have said.And I had thought used car dealers were dodgy.

Dealing with Connells

Very hard to deal with and also very rude when a company like this should keep up high expectations. I would not recommend anyone to purchase from these or give the business to sell any properties. Awful experience.

INCORRRECT WASTE OF MONEY

Wrong information contradicting himself on the report. I wasted 420 quids, How can my evaluation can come up with the asking price that is higher than the market and all the report is full of HIGH RISK issues.
