Refusing to pay back my deposit

I moved out a property managed by the Catford branch 5 months ago and they are refusing to pay back my deposit. The amount is not disputed by either party. My tenancy ended in January and I gave them the required 1 month notice that I would not be renewing the contract and gave them the new tenants details. They say they cannot release my deposit until the new contract is signed. However, they have taken half a year(!) to do the required checks (PAT, fire etc) before they will release a contract. Communication has been awful, bounced around people and branches with no taking responsibility to resolve this. Often I was gave the wrong information or told I would be called back and never was, multiple emails ignored. I have now been through three stages of the complaint procedure with still no resolution so I've raised it with the Property Ombudsman. DO NOT USE THESE LETTING AGENTS IF YOU ARE A TENANT. No one at the company cares about your rights.

Little Sutton Branch were all fantastic

Stephenie & Molly were absolutely amazing the whole way through the selling process. Karen has put together a wonderful team and they all go above and beyond to help. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again and will recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a house

Received exceptional service from Huddersfield Reeds Rains branch from start to finish. Special thanks to Ronnie who assisted me with the house purchase. Extremely happy with the high level of customer service, professionalism and readiness to help. Ronnie had thorough knowledge about the house and answered all my questions, also he verified my proof of funds therefore speeded up the whole process. Thanks also to Tracey in the huddersfield office she was very helpful and dealt with everything in a prompt and efficient manner. Very grateful and really appreciate the exemplary service I received. Thank you so much.

Reeds Rains Reddish are absolutely brilliant, my wife and I sold our house through them and had a bit of a bumpy ride on both our sale and our onward purchase. All of them, but especially Jennifer and Alex were extremely supportive and patient throughout, cannot recommend highly enough

Lisa and Karen.

Lisa and Karen from your Carrickfergus branch have been awesome. Apparently buying selling or renting out a property is supposed to be the most stressful experience known to mankind. Not me.

Northwich Branch - Absolutely Worthless

Northwich Branch - Absolutely WorthlessIf you are a renter, please stay away from properties that use this branch.Unhelpful, always a delay, not wanting to do the work needed and mostly ignore you.They are unwilling to even speak about maintenance issues, all they do is take the rent and ignore you. Heating issue? Fix yourselfDrainage issue? Fix yourselfIssues they said they would fix once you moved in? Fix yourselfProperty inspection? Waste of time, they never turn up and ignore youI just have no idea why it’s so difficult to get things done. Isaac in the maintenance department literally does nothing to help and would never even bother replying. Jonathan is as unhelpful and there is nothing I can do to get problems fixed.I will never rent from these again; absolutely appalling.

The Team at Reeds Rains Didsbury offer an Excellent Service

The Team at Reeds Rains Didsbury have been there for me even before I put my property on the market. Their support and guidance on market conditions and the industry was invaluable, they were honest and very helpful. Elly was my go to, she is outstanding. During the viewing stage their communication was excellent. Not just an auto email but regular calls to discuss progress and feedback. I'm delighted that my property has now sold, STC, and again, David the Manager called and his exact words "it's my job to help and support you through the sale now, i'll do everything I can to help". And he's stuck to his word, just superb! It's so refreshing to get such great customer service. Big thank you to all at Reeds Rains Didsbury.

It’s all about the buyers, stuff the paying customer!!

I am writing this review from the vantage point of two separate house sales - our own home and assisting my parents house sale.All was good in the early stages of both sales until it came to sorting out a moving date and on both occasions (different estate offices) the clear priority was to only help the buyers and not give much (if any) help to the seller (the reeds rain customer who actually pays!). On both occasions we were bullied to meet the demands of the buyers, regardless of how ridiculous the time frames were being asked.During the day of our move we were constantly nattered by phone and text (7 calls) to see if we had left the property as the buyers were wanting to get in.If you are selling a home I would not recommend reeds rains one bit, in my experience they just added to the stress.

Reeds rains have been excellent throughout this process of buying my property, very understanding and patient especially when I needed to see the property 3 times before making an offer, if I ever sell this property I will definitely 100% use reeds rains….

Great Service.

All the work that we needed to do was taken in hand and we had help all through the sales process, Luke and his fellow colleagues were great and I cannot thank them enough for working with what could be said as vulnerable people.

Yet again nothing done to sort my issue going on since MAY

Yet again introduced to someone who said they can help look at my issues that have been going on for months and so far they have done absolutely nothing, don’t reply they are so rude!!! Since May this has been going on, was meant to have rent increased in May said they can only do it in September! And guess what still not happened. Promised they would fix it and get back to me and nothing at all! No reply!! So so RUDE and have no interest in correcting their mistakes! Can’t afford my mortgage hence why we asked for a rent increase, since MAY this has been going on. Tenant was expecting new amount to be taken and reedsrains haven’t done anything at their end!!! SHOCKING stay away

Excellent service

When you’re are trying to sell your property in a challenging market it’s vital to have an Agent who has belief and optimism about the process ahead. Reeds Raines secured a potential buyer ahead of schedule and I’m truly grateful for their excellent service.

If you want to waste your time on the market, recieve no support from the agent. Have them make up contracts. Never have staff to do viewings and end up taking your own photos of your property on your iphone and have them not let you leave them as an agent when you raise the issues. Reeds rains Hull is the agent for you.

The Reeds Rains Team in Eccleshall were great to deal throughout the sale of our home. The girls in the office were always on hand to help out with any queries and help us give other parties a push when needed. We highly recommend!

From our first meeting with Nicola-Jane, the team at Reeds Rains - Louise and in particular Sam, have always been very accessible, responsive and professional. Sam is our main contact and conducted the viewings of our property in a professional manner with Sam always being able to answer any queries from potential buyers thoroughly and he was always punctual !! Sam is very good at keeping us updated and included in the process - we have found that this is not necessarily the case with other agents ! We have no hesitation in recommending Sam Middlemiss of Reeds Rains Eccleshall to anyone wishing to buy, sell or let any type of property.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

Waste of Time

I used Reeds Rains to list my property, they were all singing and dancing with positivity but once I’d paid for ‘professional’ photography, I seemed to be forgotten about. (Photographer was rude too!) I didn’t get any viewings so was constantly chasing the office for updates. I had a friend put in an enquiry and they didn’t contact him for 10 days!!!!! Never answer their phones or emails. Was on the market for 4 months before I switched to another agency and the house was sold within a month. Staff clearly don’t care about the sale, more like they are incentivised to get the listing.

Useless

Do not use these incompetent con artists.Had our apartment ruined by a serious leak from the apartment they manage above us. After the building's management company sent out a plumber to turn off the water to stop the leak, Trudy in the Ballyhackamore branch told their tennant to just turn the water back on again. That was on Saturday morning, on Monday morning the building's management company plumber came back to repair the serious leak and was told to stop by the incompetent Trudy. Several hours, and the need to complain multiple times, later, as well as more buckets full of leaked water collected, finally the completely incompetent Trudy at the Ballyhackamore branch managed to get a plumber to come out and fix the leak. Now after many failed attempts to get the incompetent Trudy to provide their insurers details I have come to the conclusion that the only option is to take legal action against them to force them to give me the details of their insurers so that I can have my seriously damaged property repaired.If you let these incompetent imbeciles do anything for you in any capacity, be warned, you will end up in court facing significant costs just because of their gross stupidity and incompetence.
