A buyer found but communication not as good as usual

i wasn't kept informed of the viewings and feed backs until i chased (perhaps as Reeds Rains know me, i'm beginning to be taken for granted a little) but when i've made calls to the office they were always polite, professional and courteous and answered my questions. a buyer was found for my property in 4 or 5 weeks at a lower end price but the main objective was acheived and i'd use them again.

unprofessional and dangerous

I would recommend you don't rent from this company for a number of reasons:1) Fire safety: I place this at the top as the most serious. My apartment had damaged fire detectors that I made Reed Rains aware of. This was ignored for over half a year. As well as this the batteries were 8 years out of date indicating that safety checks are not in place or followed.2) Communication: Any times during or after my tenancy I required information in often simple matters it took weeks for a reply. Often this reply was to place responsibility at another of their colleagues or did not answer the original question.3) Behaviour: Many of the employees I have had the misfortune of having dealt with have been quite passive aggressive and unprofessional. It gives the feeling that you are just an inconvenience for them. 4) Deposit: This inevitable ties in with the previous two points, over two months past my leaving date and I am still waiting on the return of my deposit. This is due to the previously mentioned communication and behaviour issues I've encountered. Whenever I've asked for any evidence to back any claims it is met with a long wait and an inadequate and often as mentioned passive aggressive reply.I'd much rather not have to write a review but feel it is important to hopefully steer a potential victim away from this company.

Bamber Bridge were phenomnal

Bamber Bridge branch were simply phenomenal in their service and I cannot give them enough credit for the help and support they gave me right through the entire sales process. Alison in particular was simply epic, she had the answers and was chasing the chain up to get it exchanged as soon as possible. Alison took so much stress out of the situation it just proves to me that not all hero wear capes she was brilliant! Thank you again everyone at the branch you are amazing!!!!

Preston staff rude/unhelpful/thieves

Preston staff rude and unhelpful. The letting agent rips you off or takes ages getting your deposit back. Disgusting branch and should be held to account for helping landlords steal your money.

Not impressed with them

Not impressed with them I find the reaction for booking a valuation lacks ......its very mechanical even though they offer a free valuation ( only if you are selling NOW ) they come across arrogant and not wanting to offer a service that would reflect what you are selling They miss the point. We are the client and they earn from the sale but they come across as they were in the 80's. Poor service Use another agent is my advice

Completely unprofessional

Completely unprofessional, have no idea how to deal with foreigners coming to the UK for the first time for work, generic responses just to get you off, not thinking how it could affect their business in the long run. Such a shame for them for losing a loyal tenant. Guess I dodged a bullet by signing up with another agency.

I've had a great experience with the team at Reeds Rains, especially via Eliza's support as I recently moved out. They've been timely, professional and generally just very helpful in the time I was renting one of their properties.
