TrustpilotContract Should Be Illegal
I could write an essay on how bad this company is. Essentially once you sign the contract, you have 14 days under law to cancel, but after that period you have to give them their money. They were badgering me to get my flat on sale for a holiday period, and then they missed the holiday period with their sales event to get it online. Said it would have taken x3 weeks to take the photos and get it online. So I said give me back the keys, as I want to do some extra bits (new hob, lights, breakfast bar). Then I went to purple Bricks who had it online in 2 days, and told Bairstow Eves "I don't care if I have to pay you, I want nothing more to do with you". And complained. So their internal complaints service decided that it was my fault it wasn't online in time because I was holding it up by doing extra work. Even though I had the emails proving the opposite. So then I went to the Ombudsman just to waste more time, and asked them a simple question "When does the contract end?" To which they replied "We can't tell you because we're not legally trained". Then they sent me the code of conduct that the Ombudsman writes which is the legal framework that estate agents write their contracts against. And Bairstow Eves sent an illegible page in response, and said if I signed it I should understand it. So if they (all parties) can't answer a simple question like that, how are members of the public meant to have a full understanding of it? Especially when it mentions duration of the contract is in section 3 (of the estate agent's contract) - then you look for it and it goes: section 1,2,4,5,6,7,8.The bottom line is - they get your signature, and then they can go golfing or whatever else they get up to, and they're legally entitled under British law to their money once you sell with another agent, or find a buyer.* And everything else that's meant to represent consumer rights is a farce. *In terms of finding the buyer: they say they've always got people on the books even before it goes online. That even when another agent finds a buyer, it was them. That they might have told a spouse or sibling who informed your buyer. That if you find a buyer yourself and don't use another agent for two years, there's no way of proving it was you that found them, but the marketing period is indefinite. Even if the contract states the marketing period is for 5 months or so, it will still state it's indefinite at the same time, and they state that from the moment you've signed they've already got interested parties. Etc, etc.

TrustpilotBairstow eves lettings Romford
Bairstow eves lettings Romford - never do any business with them. They have been charging huge fees from landlords and never return call or email. We have also complained to Customer care team 4 weeks back and there has been no progress in our complaint. The have charged us for annual renewal fee that was not included in the contract and inspite of multiple calls and emails we havent been refunded (all proof emailed to the team multiple times). None of the staff members are professional and inspite of multiple emails and calls we get informed that their manager will call us and they dont know anything about the matter.

TrustpilotBairstow eves Bow branch etc
Bairstow eves Bow branch etc. Called me back but because I was unable to secure the rented property within 6 days Failed to email me the property information that I requested. Failed to reply to my Whatsapp messages for a whole 4 days and have refused to explain why the property /properties is still advertised on EVERY search engine. Failed to explain why its being let at a different price and have blocked me from whatsapp. Just had an incoming call but they hung up before I could even pick up the phone that is sitting right next to me. Absolutely disgusting behaviour from Alan Harvey at Bairstow eves. Zero customer service skills

TrustpilotThe agents are nice
The agents are nice, but unfortunately they are capable of lowering the property's price. Despite assurances that the price is final, you shouldn't trust them. I do not recommend.

GoogleI became a tenant recently in one of the properties they're letting. Both Steve and Elaine (I believe she's from Wanstead branch) are very kind, helpful and responsive. Seeing how many agencies only do their job halfway, I'd definitely recommend this one.

TrustpilotNo care
They don’t care about the state of the properties they rent out . They just want to get paid , keep the owner of the house happy . No rights for tenants , even if you have 6 kids they will serve you a section 21 after living in rubbish conditions and asking for it to be sorted . Minus 5 stars

TrustpilotVery disappointed with the "service"…
Very disappointed with the "service" they gave to my elderly parents. They talked a good talk to get their sale but their service has been non existent. They pressured my parents into using their solicitors and I had to contact them to remind them that any instructions must come through me. They said they would mailshot properties for my parents to buy but no evidence of this. They had 3 offers during the first weekend of advertising the property and then immediately removed it from the website even though it was offers over. Absolutely no contact from the agents. Appalling service from start to finish. Very disappointed.

TrustpilotUnprofessional Service. Beware.
Called the North Finchley branch to arrange a valuation over a week ago. I explained that I lived miles away from the property and I explained that the property was a ground floor flat and agent told me it was a maisonette. He said all ground floors are maisonettes! However I booked a valuation appointment for today at 11. I waited until 11.30 and called the branch and was told that they had tried to call me in the week to cancel and left a voicemail, they did not and I dont have voicemail. They did not email the cancellation. I told them I had emails confirming and asked why they didn't call me today as I live so far away and he apologised and wanted to reschedule! Very unprofessional. Do not use, I won't be.

GoogleAbsolutely awful experience as a buyer. The agents did not relay messages and requests to the seller, they really delayed the process. Lots of lies and excuses and team are not professional in both communications and processes. We ended up pulling out and was mainly due to the agents. AWFUL...

I needed to contact the Billericay office for some help & found Jess D (Lettings Negotiator) to be an absolute star! She was calm, polite, pleasant, helpful, speedy & supportive. She actioned what she said she would and has a fabulous "can-do" attitude. I can't thank her or praise her enough! It's rare to find such, but very welcoming!
