Philip james has been a great experience in selling my property , especially libby who has looked after me every step of the way, when my solicitors were dragging their heels she got on it and got the sale through quickly and hassle free , any problems they sort it, I would not hesitate to go to them in the future.

I have been trying to contact this estate agent for about 4 weeks, about a number of properties in the Salford area, and left a number of messages and no one returns any calls, or answers any emails, Its a shame for people trying to let there properties.

Enquired to find out if Philip James would be our estate agent and sell our flat. Contacted them multiple times, they never came back to us so we went with a different estate agents.

Currently renting with these guys and generally it’s been pretty positive. Had a dispute with our landlord that they sorted promptly, getting the flat was generally pretty smooth. I think their email response rate could be improved and it can also be quite hard to get through to someone on the phone. 4/5.PositiveQuality, Value

Been a tenant for 12 months in 42 Cotton Hill, Withington. Very expensive admin fees. Do not vet the private land lords or the properties that they represent. This has lead me to be stuck with a very difficult private landlady in a house ridden with damp. I would strongly suggest you avoid. The pretend five star reviews did give me a chuckle.

Apalling excuse for a letting agent with non existent customer service. Even if they are recieving "2500 phone calls a day" and all their properties are rented out as soon as they become available, why do they still advertise these properties on Rightmove and waste people's time?

0 stars.... horrible service provider. never calls you back. I rented a property from this agency, once i paid the agency fee and signed the contract. they are not helpful at all. they make you call here and there but never do what you ask them to do. I would say stay away from this letting agency, they are absolutely horrible.

The lettings team don't answer their telephones and won't reply to any messages left. The apartment had not been 'deep cleaned' as promised and there was human waste in the damaged bathroom grout- disgusting. I'm currently in contact with a lettings manager to try and resolve this matter, please see Trustpilot as to the result of this action.

The most awful estate agents I've ever had the misfortune of having to deal with. If you can avoid dealing with them from rentals, please do so. They do not care about their tenants in any way. They do not respond to tenant requests. From Day 1, they have been terrible at basic customer services. Not recommended.

They post nice flats that meets my requirements but have no time to return calls or inquiries. I see atleast 3 properties that meet my requirements and when I call or enquire, get poor service. Not even bothered to take my request. Really upsetting.NegativeQuality

AVOID AT ALL COSTS! Extremely unprofessional and incompetent. My housemates and I could not have been more disappointed with the whole letting experience. It took us over 6 months to receive our deposit back - the deductions to our deposit were absolutely extortionate! Would have given it 0 stars if I could have.

I was told they would phone me back regarding a property that I was extremely interested in. I never received that call. Having just moved from overseas, I was needing an expertise help & advice. Generally unhelpful & unwilling to help prospective ready to pay tenants.

Don't bother to even try and book a viewing. They don't answer their phone for days and have openly admitted they don't respond to emails. Go instore to ask for assistance and just was spoken to by a snobby woman who refused to help.
