Deposit you could lose it if smoke alarm…
Will keep your deposit if smoke alarm not working! They will call out an engineer and you will have to foot the bill! Very expensive! This happened in Chesterfield a while ago now they can check their records of deposits held onto
Hi Peter, sorry to read your review. I've sent you a request for more information. The request will come from Trustpilot. If you could let me know some more details that would help me look into this further and help you resolve this. Kind regards

Money Making Machine
It appears that Reed Rains only care about making money, their staff are programmed with a script of what to say and they do not deviate and act like a human being. Their charges are extortionate and lock you in with so many terms and conditions that even the the most experienced Landlords can get stung. PLEASE DO NOT USE THEM!
Hello - We are very sorry to hear about your experience, could you please let me know which branch you have been dealing with so we can get to the bottom of your issues.Kind regards,Reeds Rains

Head office
Head officeAs you will see Reeds Rains have replied to my comment, explaining that sales are taking longer than usual ! ! ! However, the problem is. They advise you to go with a certain buyer, take over a month to check all details and only after asking for many weeks what is happening. They finally confirm everything is “a go” This is not just the branch that are incompetent, it also comes from head office ! ! ! Six days ago they were full of apologies and confirmed on this site I would receive confirmation of my payment. Not such notification. The company is a TOTAL JOKE, UNPROFESSIONAL FROM HEAD OFFICE DOWN TO THE BRANCHES. ARLA will be informed along with the other “PROFESSIONAL BODIES” they claim to be with. Honestly, please please please DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY

Exceptional service
Exceptional service. Highly recommend.We used Reeds Rains in Crossgates and the service was 100% throughout.Sarah who valued the 2 properties we were selling was professional, passionate and very knowledgable. She told us one property would end in sealed bids and exceed the valuation, it did.The Ladies in the Crossgates office were very polite and helpful. They kept us informed every step of the way and chased Solicitor’s etc up when we asked.I would not use anyone else in Crossgates

St. Helens
The St Helens branch have been a complete life saver in helping me find a new rental property, I was updated at every stage. I have been with several different agents over the last few years and it was nice to speak to an agent who actually cared about getting me sorted ASAP.Reeds rains kept in contact with me every day by email or by phone call. Informing me of any changes or updates. Thank you so much would definitely recommend to anybody looking to rent!

Partner phoned up, Rude receptionist!
Partner phoned up to enquire about properties, receptionist was rude as anything and told my partner (who has mental health problems) to simply "get a job" I don't know what ivory tower this little urchin crawled down from but that is certainly an unacceptable way to speak to potential clients. WILL NOT USE!!
Hello Ricki - I'm sorry you have not been pleased with the service you've received from Reeds Rains. Customer service is of paramount importance to us. Please email enquries@reedsrains.co.uk with some further details regarding your review.Kind regards,Reeds Rains

Terrible customer service. Paid a Fully managed service. No help from local branch. No replies to emails and no return phone calls. Quick to offer services for additional costs but don’t provide the service actually already paid for. Avoid at all costs.Incompetent.

Zoe and the team and reeds rains were great as usual! I sold my own house with them last year and I have just bought another terrace with them. Always professional, approachable and on the case.

We can't get the deposit back
It's been a month since we left home, but we still can't get our deposit. Used items are replaced with the tenant's money. You cannot find a contact.When you talk, they say they are here to protect the landlord.Be very careful...
Hi Sarah, very sorry to read this has been your experience with us. I've sent you a request for more information. The request will come from Trustpilot. If you could let me know some more details that would help me look into this further and help you resolve this. Kind regards

Nobody cares and nobody takes responsibility
I've been dealing with the Chesterfield branch. absolutely abysmal organisation, automated reply for everything telling us how important our message is and yet no one ever replies in person. Complete lack of coordination between departments, I would never have anything to do with them again.
Hi Russell, I'm sorry this has been your experience. I've sent you a request for further information so we can try and resolve your issue. Kind regards

Excellent and speedy service
We were in need of placing tenants in our property pretty quickly after a lengthy process after the renovation.Reed Rains followed up with all our questions and concerns promptly and efficiently. They were always on the other end of the phone / email.They have an extremely professional service with viewings; we were always notifyed whenever bookings were taking place.It can be overwhelming to understand the process but everything was explained at each stage and step, with consideration and in depth knowledge of the market.Reed Rains gave us an accurate valuation for the property and did their best to get as close to the original valuation as possible.Highly recommend.

Consistently professional and great customer focus
I have used Reeds Rains to manage the letting of a property I have owned for a number of years and have always been delighted with the service which all the team provide, under Helen's leadership. When I decided to sell the property I used Reeds Rains for this too and, again, the service was totally professional and consistently excellent from Joe, Lauren and Donna. It's very clear that there is a very strong customer focus combined with a high degree of professionalism within Reeds Rains, or at least in Preston, which makes them a pleasure to deal with.

We recently had a great experience…
We recently had a great experience purchasing our new home with the ladies at the Bamber Bridge branch. Everyone was extremely helpful and friendly, and made every effort to ensure the purchase moved quickly and smoothly. Alison and Donna in particular were fabulous, and the lady who showed us around the property (who's name unfortunately escapes me) was also lovely to deal with. The ladies here are obviously very caring and passionate about their roles, and I couldn't recommend them highly enough. I might also add that Donna in particular deserves a 'shout out' as although she does not appear to be as visible and front of house as the other ladies, she was the one who put in the majority of the groundwork, and ensured that any concerns were quckly dealt with/resolved, and all the legal arrangements and requirements were completed at the speed of light. Fantastic people to deal with, and as mentioned previously, I could not recommend highly enough. A big thank you to everyone involved.
