GoogleI used Connells to try and find my first home. They didn’t have a house suitable but Olivia was very helpful and tried to find me as many potential properties as possible. She went above and beyond to try and help me find a property but there just wasn’t one suitable but Olivia was still very polite and understanding despite this
Thankyou

GoogleI had a viewing of 50 Warden Road, Coventry at 10:45-1100 hrs slot on 19/04/19 with Mr Surinder from Connells Coventry. Because of the traffic we reached late by 5mins. We informed the Connells office explaining the reason for the delay. As soon we reached for the viewing at 1050 hrs, Mr Surinder refused us to even enter the house. He was so rude and disrespectful. We have dealt with so many Estate agents in past but have never experienced this bad behaviour. After this incidence, we will never book Connells for house viewings again. And I would advice same to everyone else as well.

GoogleHow come no one answers the phones in the office? For 3 days straight I start from the morning until end of day. Phone rings, the other side cuts off and you get sent to a voicemail for a call back... Which never happens. Eventually the voicemail get filled up so you can't even leave a message for a callback...NegativeResponsiveness

GoogleRebecca and James were both extremely helpful and easy going, not to mention how professional and efficient they are in every step of the process. Letting agencies need more people like James and Rebecca, they have your best interest at heart and they continue their support even after completing your move. They're great at what they do.

GoogleNot recommended.
My experience qith them is terrible. At the beginning untill you sign the contract they will keep contacting you. Once you sign you need to chase them up for everything.
First, I took over the house was not clean and qe had to clean it for a day. Then the previous tenant left the bins full so I put them for collection, however the council did not take the recycle bin because it was full of organic stuffs; food and othere stuffs. I contacted them to arrange for collection. They did not respond. Inwent to their office, the agent called the landlord and told me they will arrange collection and nothing happened. After more than a month I had to do it myself.
The electricity shut down at the house qhile I was away for work, I called them as my family were there and they said they will contact the landlord to send someone. Guess what? The left my family 3 days in the darkness and I was calling them everyday untill they finally sent someone to sort it out.
I had a problem with the boiler, they sent someone to see what's going on and once they new it was not something serious they sent maintenance after a week. Then I called them again for the same problem 5 weeks before I leave the property and not a surprise I left the property before anyone to come and fix it.
When I was renting my current place, I had to call them everyday chasing them up to respond to the reference, they replied after a week.
Finally, I left the property a month ago, and I've been contacting them to release the deposit and everyday I call they say we will contact the landlord forst to see if he is happy to release the deposit and they said "there is no a legal time frame to release the deposit "
So I'm not recommending this agency by any means.

GoogleYesterday I got a phone call from the lettings agent. He told me that he would email me over the details to a FaceTime call. I waited a further 20 hours and received nothing. Not a single word.
Not a professional email giving me ongoing details.
I was told after ringing them up that this morning someone put in a offer that the landlord accepted.
But I was going to place a offer last night in the FaceTime viewing?
Olivia the lettings manager took and aggressive tone. She’s very sarcastic and rude. She shouldn’t be working in a people based job as she is very arrogant. She interrupted me several times.
I even had to ask her to stop interrupting me. I was there to make a complaint not to be spoken down to.
Nobody in that office knows what another person is doing. They lack communication skills within their team and with customers.
My mother had previously spoken to the lettings manager olivia before and the moment she spoke to them and mentioned her universal credits (me and another earn occupant £110,000 annually through self employment)
They shut her down. So this is a secondary complaint as there’s obviously some large amounts of discrimination at play.
We will be contacting trading standards regarding this and we will be pushing for them to issue a fine regarding the illegal discrimination this company is legislating.
DO NOT USE

GoogleWanted to view and buy a property with them, won't be doing that. Had a viewing scheduled, waited for 35mins outside of the property, no one showed up. Despite calling 10mins after the estate agent should have arrived, I was reassured that the agent left 15mins ago and could be traffic. The property was exactly 15mins away, and Google maps wasn't showing any traffic. Either way, waited another 25mins and still no show. After calling the agency again, they didn't say to hold the line and they'd find out where the agent is, they just said sorry and they'll look into why this has happened, and will contact me to rearrange. A week later, still no communication. No wonder the property has been on the market for months, if the agents are not making any effort to sell it. I'm selling 2 properties currently in Coventry, and there are certainly far better estate agents in the area.

GoogleWe just found new tenants for out flat in Coventry. From the day of instruction to the tenant moving in, they have been amazing. We had several applicants who, thanks to their rigorous vetting, were deemed unsuitable, but they were tenacious in their aim to find us a great tenant with brilliant references. Faiz, in particular,is a credit to the lettings team. He is very professional and kept us informed every step of the way. He was easy to deal with and we felt that he truly had our best interests at heart throughout the whole process. Nothing was too much trouble. He is absolutely brilliant. Would highly recommend. :-)

GoogleThey sent my home buyers report to the wrong house more than twice. When I went to collect it in person because I didn’t trust them they provided me with awful directions. We were not compensated for the delay and it caused several issues as we had to make a decision or lose our the dream home we had found. Wouldn’t touch them with a barge pole.
