TrustpilotConnells wolverhampton Jenny Turner mortgage advisor
We were recommended to lady called Jenny Turner at the wolverhampton branch of Connells for mortgage advice, by a friend of ours. We can honestly say this woman is an expert in her field. Within 2 weeks of our meeting we had a morgage offer and a week later our keys to our new home. The process was completely seamless and only having two 1hr appointments. She made sure we came fully prepared to each meeting, to make the process simple and smooth. We just cannot get over how straight forward she made it. Having been through this process before, with weeks of waiting and endless paperwork being posted backwards and forwards, this was a breath of fresh air. This lady is an absolute expert in her field and knowledge of the industry is second to none. She is an absolute asset to Connells. And we will most Deffinatley be going back to her when our two year rate is up. I will most Deffinatley recommending Jenny Turner to my friends. Thank you Jenny xxx

TrustpilotLooks like I'm not the only one with a poor experience
I purchased a house via Connells in 2023, and it was not an experience I want to repeat. I was forced into visiting their in house mortgage advisor and told I would get a better chance of purchasing the house I was interested in if I used them.

GoogleConnells have been amazing. Went above and beyond to sell our house. Everyone is very friendly, and they were dealing with very stressed vendors!

TrustpilotDisappointed & Disgusted
We brought our house in 2014 and after 2 years and a complete refurbishment and have spent £45k+ we put our house back on the market with Connells, ( BIG MISTAKE ) we were advised to go out and look for something else as was told ours wouldn't be on the market long, we found another property.After 6 weeks will no viewings at all my mother rang the branch as a mystery shopper just so I could have some feedback, to my horror within the first 30 seconds of the phone call it was all negatives she was told it was a mid terrace it's a semi, it's an ex local authority it's very isolated and has a restriction.After this we have since put in a complaint and have gone through the correct procedure of a 15 day return with no result, we have asked to speak to the area manager Paul Edginton with no reply and today have asked to speak to the regional manager Stephen Shipley again with no reply, my husband spoke to Patricia Judge who then began to bully and laugh at my husband on the phone today with again very unprofessional we are now on week 11 and to date we still have had no viewings.

TrustpilotQuick professional sale and found us our dream house!
For our sale and purchase I would like to thank Connells for providing such outstanding and professional estate agents. Connells' knowledge of the market, responsiveness and well developed network of clients was clear from the outset. In under a week Marie had delivered a highly professional marketing package, had numerous buyers view our property, and had it sold at the asking price. You gave us sound advice throughout and even a bit of emotional support when needed! That is outstanding. David you found us the house of our dreams - for us, in our circumstances, it is a perfect fit. Thank you so much. I really cannot conceive of a better service.

TrustpilotWhy can agents only talk and not hear ?
Why is it that agents just dont hear what you tell them, went into Connells in Dorchester looking for a property to "do up" as a property developer and advised they had just the property ...... a semi detached house a developer had recently completed, explained we were looking for something before it was refurbished (three times) and had to bluntly say NO to the property, none others to look at - what the agent did not know it we are just about to sell two flats we have completed - they will not be getting the instructions. Guy was pleasant and polite but please open those ears !

GoogleWould highly recommend to buy through Connells, especially if first time buyer. Andy, Steph, Nick and the team are very patient considering how much we called them throughout the process and they took each and every call or called back if unavailable. We did approach other agents however they seemed disinterested or "nothing available" for us (even if there were on websites etc!)
Would definitely buy / sell through Connells again 😊👍

TrustpilotFirst time buyers- stay clear
As first time buyers the estate agents were terrible. We had a mortgage in principle yet they still insisted we could not proceed until we spoke to their mortgage advisor. They took a week to get us ‘qualified’ to put in an offer and because of this we lost out on our house. There was a lack of communication and lack of explanations and all round rude service. Would not recommend one bit

TrustpilotHow do they even sell properties?
Tried to book a viewing with Connells and heard nothing back for a week (although they say replies expected within 48hrs). Called up directly and instead booked the viewing over the phone. They then proceeded to add the wrong information for me which I only noticed when I had no confirmation. Called back again, changed the information but in doing so lost me the viewing slot that had to be rebooked to a different date but whilst waiting for the new date the house had multiple viewings and sold quickly.I asked to be contacted on any relevant properties which were listed to which I was refused as I hadn't booked in to meet with their mortgage department. What a scam! I then tried to book a second viewing on a different property which, once again, nobody replied to me. It has since been 3 months with no reply and luckily for me I've now purchased a property with another estate agent. If you're thinking of selling with Connells i'd avoid like the plague because they have no drive to even try to do their jobs.

TrustpilotThe worst agent I’ve ever dealt with…
The worst agent I’ve ever dealt with before. They absolutely stand on the landlord’s side and never consider the tenant’s side. They’ve helped the ridiculous and unreasonable landlord to claim all our deposits. Our landlord and neighbours spied on us and slandered us. Our landlord being so unreasonable claiming us for redecoration that they should really spend to redecorate before renting to another tenant. They’ve avoided this cost by claiming all our deposits. Actually they didn’t even decorate/refurnished the house before renting to us. They didn’t even clean up the property before renting to us. Then they would claim us on cleaning and redecorating the property. The agency believes the landlord their client. Never consider and care about us.

Constant updated provided on the progress of marketing the house and always available to answer any queries.

This company should be shut down! Shocking!! They under valued my home by £35,000 after 3 other companies valued it at the correct price causing a long chain to collapse! There are hundreds of other similar reviews.Why is nothing being done about this company! All google reviews and trust pilot are 1 star! They should be disgusted by themselves!! What are they gaining by doing this!

TrustpilotTHE WORST ESTATE AGENTS IN SWINDON
The very worst Estate agents by far! I reported a maintenance issue and was told to watch a YouTube video to resolve it. The tenancy ended in May 24 and they wanted to claim from my deposit. I raised a dispute and they charged their minds. I am still waiting for my deposit 6weeks after the tenancy ended. They have no sense of urgency (not to tenants in my opinion) and will frustrate the hell out of you. Very poor customer service and they don't care about you. Don't be fooled by the brand name. Avoid doing business with them if you want peace of mind.

TrustpilotCrikey, what a shambles.
Crikey, what a mess. Had a rental with Connells Management, also bought a property which was under Connells Management. It is quite clear that there is not many of the personnel there that know what they're doing. They use old documentation with incorrect practice process, prices, and details on. They don't communicate with other team members, if team members go on holiday, your case is on hold. Multiple conversations where the person in question doesn't actually know the process or anything about the process. Informed a problem is solved, only for it to continue, forcing you to keep calling and dealing with them.I have never known a business so incompetent in every area where you have to deal with them.With any luck, I shall never have the pleasure again.

Where the same review appears twice we show it once. We leave out reviews that name another agent or another of the brand's offices.
