The world needs a new way of not forgetting the Holocaust. We have had numerous documentaries and historical fiction films and tv shows to learn from. And now we have a SENSATIONAL show that will awaken us and keep the conversation of anti Semitism, racism and the plights if all disenfranchised groups of the world at the forefront.

TrustpilotSo unprofessional
Hunters took over my tenancy from my landlord. Since then they have ignored emails asking for legal documents and repairs the landlord never did. Absolutely fuming because now I can't get any help

TrustpilotRude, incompetent and pushy
Hunters BlackpoolThe sales staff are loud, pushy, and act like a bunch of failed double-glazing salesmen desperate to close a deal.The office staff are incompetent, can't take messages, calls are not responded to and wrong information given out.A big fat zero for customer service skills. Just plain rude.I wouldn't recommend them to sell a garden shed.

TrustpilotTerrible management
Terrible management no valid electric safety cert for 5yrs. Floods in living rm not addressed for 2yrs. Put rent up by 350£ with no updating. Certificates emails ignored. Very poor standard of management. Don't care for tenant needs. Don't manage full stop

TrustpilotHunters stoke Newington N16 the worst
Hunters stoke Newington N16 the worst. Bunch of unscrupulous agents and staff. They are rude and helpful and do not deal with complaints in a professional manner at all. They were selling and letting my property at the same time and were just useless at both Both sales and lettings staff are incompetent Do not use either

TrustpilotBeen calling them more then 10 times
Been calling them more then 10 times. They say they're busy and they will get someone to call back in 5 mins yet no call received since yesterday. How busy can anyone get for 2 days that they cannot call back to their customers. Been trying to book a viewing. NO RESULT.

Having recently sold and purchased a house with Hunters I found them to be extremely helpful, they answered every question I had with ease and no task for was too much. They made the sale and purchase less stressful. I was very happy with the level of service we received.

TrustpilotVery unprofessional company
Very unprofessional company who bully young tenants into doing their dirty work for them to give them less work to do for the next tenants. Very unhelpful and ignorant staff who work in the offices who dont even Acknowledge that you're there when you walk in. Would recommend avoiding dealing with these at all costs.

GoogleWe bought through hunters recently and it was a very easy and nice process. Things got a bit hairy at the end but they were a brilliant support and pushed on our behalf to get things tied up. The ladies we dealt with were really kind and easy to communicate with. Would really recommend these guys!

Absolutely pleased with this Estate Agent, helpful all the way through a stressful time. Julian in particular goes above and beyond. Niall sorted things out quicker than the solicitor on the day off moving. Girls in office also helpful and efficient. Would def recommend

TrustpilotHunters threw me out during the covid
Hunters threw me out during the covid, send emails that are the opposite of what they say in phone calls, and talk down to you when they speak to you on the phone. I was at the huddersfield branch, go see for yourself as its run by a bunch of b*tches :)

Jake Sauvage led us through a difficult new home purchase during the Covid crisis. He went that extra mile to make sure we had a successful conclusion communicating between both solicitors and the developers. His team members were also there to help when he was not available. Thank You Hunters of Tenderton

I've rented with them for 6 years and wouldn't recommend. Took them over 2 months to give our deposit back because they were "busy". They also charged us insane contract renewal fees every year until the law finally stopped them from doing so.

They didn't turn up for a viewing. Really difficult climate for renters and had to travel a long way only for no contact or explanation.

I was absolutely nightmare deal with this letting agent (Hunters at Harbone)They make a lot of mistake in tenancy agreement date. When talking about money, no a single penny is allowed with them.Overall, the worst letting agent in the UK. Highly NOT recommended and give no satisfactory response to complaints.

TrustpilotThere ARE decent estate agents…Who knew?
I’ve used a few estate agents in the past and have a fairly cynical view of them. However Hunters have managed to change my mind. The service and their communication has been very good all through the process. Highly recommended.

TrustpilotUnhelpful and rude
Short, unresponsive team who despite the tag line of “here to help you get there” have provided no such help. Have applied for several properties as well as emailed to ask for guidance moving to a new city with rude responses that they are unable to support.
