BJB was helpful and I like their professional online portal for tenants. Even though I had a bit of issues (beyond their control) along the process, Chelsea was very helpful and polite. I will recommend BJB to friends and families. Thanks a lot Chelsea.

I would thoroughly recommend Congleton's Branch of Butters John Bee, all the staff are very friendly. Michael Ferris, manager of the Congleton Office was very pro-active, he gave me lots of help and advice and found me a suitable tenant for my apartment very quickly.

Excellent service from BJB at Sandbach

Excellent service from BJB at Sandbach. Both Reuben and George kept us informed and up to date with proceedings every step of the way. Professional yet friendly; nothing was too much trouble. Would highly recommend.

Deposit who?

We rented a house from BJB Jan 2020 - Jun 2021. During the process of getting everything sorted to move in they were absolutely amazing. As soon as we moved in, that very quickly stopped. Most maintenance requests sat unresolved for the entire tenancy, including issues like the roof and the boiler leaking; some requests they sent someone to deal with after a few months, but the person always said they needed specialist equipment and would be back in touch - which of course never happened.Worst of all is to this day we haven't heard anything about getting our deposit back, despite my housemate emailing and calling them about it several times over the past year. Every time it's "we'll chase that up for you" but all they ended up doing was block his number so now he can't even ring anymore.BJB is really out here stealing people's money and having 0 remorse about it. Can't recommend never renting from them enough.

A great estate agent would recommend

We bought a property being marketed by JBB Cannock and Andy and his team were just simply amazing. Nothing was too much trouble, everything was handled quickly and efficiently. I would recommend this company to anyone

2 months later and still no response...

The only reason I'm leaving any review at all is due to the fact that it's been 2 months and I've still heard nothing back from the Hanley branch besides a short call where they claimed the people I'd been emailing no longer worked with them or were conveniently on annual leave, but neglected to provide an alternative point of contact.The concierge team have been fantastic and have chased for a response on my behalf every time. The fact that the people in the Hanley branch don't even respond to their own concierge and property management teams is disgraceful. On countless occasions I've tried to confirm a move-out date, to which they responded in the short call I had with "We never had it in writing, so no". The property is also more than a month overdue its gas safety inspection, as its certificate expired in March. They said they'd contact me to arrange the inspection, but that never happened. They also excused the fact that the landlord allowed illegal entry into the property for someone without first informing me, and it wasn't until I got home from work to find my garden gate wide open and things inside the property moved, that I found out.The cherry-topper is the fact that they've sent me multiple 'Rent Arrears' letters claiming I owe money, but for a seemingly random amount. I pay my rent in full every month without fail, and have the bank statements to prove it. Roughly 20 attempts to call them in the last month or two and numerous emails sent, but still no answer. Absolutely shameful service.If only their concierge teams could replace this branch, then perhaps work would actually get done.Edit:You've made one attempt to contact me since the short call I had with a member of staff, and that was just a snarky email in a feeble attempt to dismiss the reported issues. I also asked about your complaints procedure, to which I was advised emailing you directly with a written statement - to which I had no response until 2 weeks later with your dismissal. I STILL don't have written confirmation regarding the threatening letters I've received, and STILL haven't got anywhere regarding the illegal entry into the property.But thank you for your desperate attempts to contact me over the last 2 months to get these issues resolved. My heroes.

No communication on their side

Tried to book a viewing with the Alsager branch. One employee answered the phone on Thursday and booked me a viewing at 4pm Monday, but when I've rung up today having not had any kind of confirmation message or email, the employee I spoke to today said this time was never an option. No apologies for the mix up either and made it seem like it was my fault! I appreciate they are busy at the moment, but there's no need to be rude about an error on their side!

Shocking way of working

Shocking way of working! We viewed a property on Saturday last and we’re only the second ones to see it, we fell in love with the property immediately and put in a substantial offer way above the asking price and requested the vendor was informed immediately with a view to taking it off the market if accepted? I was told at the property by the agent that he would, I rang on Monday for some news on our bid only to be told that it hadn’t been submitted and wouldn’t be until they had got feedback from other viewings!! In other words they were promoting a bidding war! Long story short we missed out on the property of our dreams because they like playing God with peoples lives!! We might not have got the property even if they’d done as I’d asked but to lie to us and purposely withhold our bid until it suited them is immoral unethical and down right wrong! Another much better estate agent told me it was a shocking way to do business but that’s Bees for you!! We are still looking and purposely avoiding properties that are listed with this awful company!!!

Ignored - 3 x phone calls and 1 x email.

Friday 8/4/22 (10:09 hrs) Phoned to make viewing appointment. I was told call diverted to Concierge/HO as Longton branch didn't answer. Details taken and told Longton will call you back. No replyFriday 8/4/22 (13:52 hrs) Phoned to chase up viewing appointment. I was told call diverted to Concierge HO as Longton branch didn't answer. Details taken again and told Longton will call you back again. No reply (again)Sat 9/4/22 (16:30 hrs). Left email using the "Contact Us" option on BJB website. No replyMon 11/4/22 (09:38 - Nigel). Called for 3rd time to try to make appointment to view house. Once again call transferred to Concierge/HO (Nigel). Once again told Longton would be in touch shortly.Current date/time =11/4/22 (14:47) Still no reply to the three phone calls or the email message. Shoddy customer service at best. At worst it is simply disrespectful and rude.SummaryI know it is a sellers market at the moment, but that doesn't give you the right to give such poor service to prospective buyers. If you are planning on selling, you may wish to choice a different agent?

Recently used Butters John Bee - Newcastle Under Lyme Branch to sell our house. We had a excellent service from start to finish, especially Teri Lawton who was fantastic. She chased everyone in the chain weekly and provided me with an update every time.

Selling house

BJB sold our house on behalf of the landlord. They were atrocious from start to finish. Told us nothing, didn't answer emails and were unprofessional and unhelpful. The only contacts were to say when they had booked viewings for (didn't bother telling us they'd cancelled) and to stick a sold sign up outside the house, again not telling us. These caused extreme distress as we are both disabled, which they knew. Really poor.
