The personnel are unprofessional

Probably my worst ever experience of trying to buy a house, both persons I dealt with at the Evesham branch were shocking. The girl that showed me the properties seemed away with the fairies and providing very minimal info at all viewings. Eventually when I had an offer accepted on a property, I had to deal with an arrogant bloke that had called my solicitor and then lied to me what my solicitor had said! A dreadful experience that contributed towards me pulling out of the property. Their communications in reply’s were shocking, never use again.

I would not recommend, Salford branch

I would not recommend. I recently rented a property through them, they were the agent working for the landlord. They provided me with wrong information, the wrong details to make rent payments, they provided me the wrong information regarding the tenancy agreement. As a result I have had trouble with my landlord because I was provided with the wrong information.The agreement you sign with Reed Rains is no the same as the one the landlord believes to be correct, this has played a large part of the confusion between the landlord and I.

Awful company

Awful company, very shady business practices and not compliant with rental laws. 0 communication by email and phone and a complete lack of understanding of what their obligations are.Do not use to rent, sell or any other type of property business. If a tenant you will not get your deposit back even though your landlord agrees to it without taking legal action against this company as they keep it for themselves. Shocking

Roy and the team are great!

I have worked with Reeds Rains previously when selling and purchasing properties, so it seemed like the perfect go to when I was looking to sell my home in Chorley. The service from start to finish from Roy and his team was excellent and I can't fault them. They were very helpful and I will be recommending them to friends and family!

Awful service

My husband and I have been chasing the maintenance team of Reeds Rains to have a job fixed in the property for over two years now. The latest inspection again has highlighted the damage and my husband has asked for a resolution to the problem and still had no response. The money was taking out of the last tenants bond and the job was never completed. Our current tenants have now lived with the damage for two years which is totally unacceptable . We have a full log of dates and times of when we have chased this job and we are now considering taking legal advice as we don't know how to resolve this. We are paying for a fully managed service but yet not getting the service agreed in our contract so much so the tenants ring us directly as they are so fed up with Reeds Rains poor service.

Don’t use Reeds Rains

I’m just sorry I didn’t read the reviews before I used Reeds Rains, You can report repairs until the cows come home, barely anything gets done and as for their so called Maintenance department don’t waste your time. I note from their responses to the reviews how good Reeds Rains are about apologising, STOP APOLOGISING AND ADDRESS THE COMPLAINTS MADE. For an agency that has been established for decades, you are typical of everything I hate about estate agents.

You don’t get a second chance to make a first impression

I got in touch with this agent as I have a property to sell and therefore wanted their view on how they would market the property. I had three interactions with staff over 10 days and on each occasion the interaction was poor. I note on your responses below you say customer service is important to you but with near 50% of the reviews being left with one star it feels like you have a lot of work to do.I am not going to list all the points that lead to this score as I feel the staff members were only doing what has been asked of them. Their behaviour reflected the business culture and investment (or lack of it) in their staff in my opinion.As Head of Customer Experience for a FTSE 100 Financial Services company I do have high expectations of how any organisation treats its customers. Thankfully another agent has exceeded my expectations and I will be using them instead.If Reed Rains want to hear my views on my experience I am happy to discuss. I am pleased to have had this experience though as it has provided me with a great customer experience case study to share with my front line staff.

Reeds Rains Catford - Choose them if you enjoy stress

I could be here typing all day. Appalling communication throughout my whole moving out process. I had to constantly chase them for an update on my deposit for weeks. Their landlord tried to claim MORE than the actual deposit for repair costs including £14.40 for a new lightbulb!? Their staff at Reeds Rains Catford are lazy and unhelpful, and that includes at their head office too. They even claimed to want to redecorate the whole property, when a new family has already moved in there.Their landlord and "contractors" are absolute con artists - avoid at all costs.

Reeds Rains Durham

Reeds Rains Durham I got your email back and filled in the questions I then phoned on Monday morning and was told someone was going to ring me back and never did someone I know emailed on Monday afternoon and you got in touch about a viewing yesterday so I phoned you yesterday afternoon at 3.45 and was told someone was going to phone me back in half an hour but like before nobody did I find it absolutely disgusting that you say one thing and do another how can someone get in touch two days after and get a viewing yet I’ve never been contacted at all for a company to do something like that is a joke and I don’t know how you keep getting houses to sell or let as your customer service is appalling il be righting a review about reeds rains to let people know how you go about business

We recently rented a house through Reeds Rains and it was the easiest experience. As a first time renter I was worried about how difficult it would be to sort it all, but Anna and the team at the Salford Quays branch made it so easy. Anna especially was helpful, considerate and willing to answer any questions I had.

Great expierence with the Bamber Bridge branch

I used the Bamber Bridge branch to sell my home. Everything was explained well prior to it going on the market & the staff dealt with a number of viewing on my behalf. I had an offer in a few days and everything progressed well. All the staff that I dealt with were very friendly and helpful, I would recommend them.

Reeds Rains in Catford

Reeds Rains in Catford, Lewisham, London breached Data Protection Act by providing my and my partner's contact details to companies that I'm not dealing with and scammers. As a result my credit scoring decreased 27 points and I am contacted by all sort of scammers to get into my property to check all sort of things!!! I'm calling them and my agent is always busy with other calls, so never been able to talk to them about this and other issues in the property.

Can highly recommend Reeds Rains.Thank you to the staff at Sutton branch in Hull, especially Karen Knight who made the whole process of buying my house such a pleasant one, chasing things up and answering queries very swiftly, kept things moving in areas my solicitor couldn't. Very professional overall and a pleasure to deal with. Thank you so much

We have just sold our house with Reeds Rains Chorley and couldn’t recommend them enough. We dealt with Roy and he has been great throughout the whole process. They have communicated well and have made the whole process stress free. Having just sold another property using another agent I have seen a complete difference dealing with Reeds rains and all their staff.

Worst Service ever

We had to experience a horrendous service, We were intimidated and bullied by a person called Tony from Cheadle branch. I cant imagine the trauma myself and my wife went through. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone. However Samantha was very polite and helpful.

Great Customer Service

I can’t fault Reeds Rains in Bamber Bridge, Alison Whiteside is an absolute credit to your team! Our first house buy and she kept me in the loop the whole time, her Customer Service is fantastic. I had a few meltdowns along the way and she was always at the end of the phone or email to reassure us. Thank you.

Sorry to say the experience of selling the house with Reeds Rains was not a pleasant one the communication was almost non existent, carrying out simple requests was impossible, no one has followed up after the sale of the property to check everything was ok and the purchasers of the property also complained to me about the estate agent and will not buy from them ever again

Used before but will not use again

Iv used Reeds Rains twice before and found them to be excellent. But i will NEVER use them again and would consider not buying and property on there listings I would say we had 70% of are viewers complain about Reeds Rains not get backing touch in a reasonable time regarding viewings,one viewer waited over a week before he had to ring them again.We also seemed to last minute calls at 4.50pm regarding viewings for the next day.One viewer left have way through the viewing because of a double booking ( obviously not following any government guidelines )Our House did sell but from that moment on did not hear a thing from them from selling to moving was 10 weeks and did not hear a thing.On the day of the move our purchaser was ring us in regards to the keys Reeds Rain had seem to of wash the hands of having to do anymore.Hull Branch

Unauthorised marketing - unable to unsubscribe

I contacted Reeds Rains to arrange a viewing. Subsequently and without my permission they added me to their marketing scheme. I tried to simply unsubscribe ALL but then had to uncheck 8 separate boxes before clicking update. Logging back in I can see all boxes are unchecked BUT I'm still being spammed with junk mail.I emailed Reeds Rains but they ignored me.Can anyone suggest an organisation I can complain to please? Many thanks...Having to go through all this just for arranging a property viewing.Reply from Reeds Rains3 days agoHi,We are very sorry that you are still receiving marketing from us. Please can you send an email containing you name and email address to enquiries at reedsrains.co.uk and reference this review so we can look into why you are still receiving material from us.Kind regards,Reeds RainsReeds Rains did you actually read my review above??????? I clearly mentioned I'd already emailed Reed Rains and that you have ignored the email. More importantly can you answer what gives your company the right to sign me up to a marketing scheme without even asking me first??? PLEASE ANSWER!!! (I'm not shouting but I insist on an answer to this question!)

Excellent service from Reed Rains Ossett Lettings

Excellent, efficient and very professional service from the lettings manager at Ossett. We’ve had two properties on the market and have been genuinely impressed with the attention to detail and speedy follow up on the increasingly complicated process. Great work. Thank you Reed Rains; we are definitely continuing to use your services.
