TrustpilotHolly & Nathanial @ Stockton Heath
I’m so grateful to Nathanial, Holly and Sam at Bridgfords Stockton Heath. They’ve helped me through two moves during one of the hardest times in my life, and their support has genuinely meant the world. They were kind, patient and completely on top of everything. Thank you for going above and beyond for me.

TrustpilotAvoid
Unfortunately, i read these reviews quite late and I am in agreement with all the negative opinions about Bridgfords Withington. We tried to buy a flat, but when we told them that we have our own mortgage advisor, the communication stopped. When we tried to get updates, they would try to discourage us to continue. They went on making an offer for our maximum budget, despite only having 1 additional buyer who offered 25k less than us. Dishonesty/ lack of transparency and totally unprofessionalism, especially Richard/ Hammad. I am happy I did not use their services, and I now select properties which are not in their portfolio. Quite sure the seller has received a lower offer as well, which is a shame as the flat was superb. Avoid!

TrustpilotBranch staff good, conveyancing beyond horrendous
Started the journey of selling my flat with Bridgfords well, great listing, quickly found a buyer, then Bridgfords conveyancing service took over and was incompetent at every turn. 6 months on from accepting an offer I’ve had to end the sale as my mental health couldn’t handle anymore of the misleading, lies and gaslighting from their conveyancers. Was so bad even the branch staff said they were embarrassed at how bad it was.

TrustpilotIf I could put 0 I would
If I could put 0 I would. My cousin gave notice that he was giving up the flat due to family and health issues. Before he was able to remove his things (within a week) they have taken his belonging and given only some clothing back. They have stolen a family air loom watch (Rolex) , cash that was for Christmas, not given back any expensive trainers .. they have drip fed some things back since like the tvs and yet to receive the Xbox, they have photos of his stuff on their report which they haven’t given back. They are not to be trusted . They are proceeding to trade non ethically and illegally. Reports to police have been made. They prey on vulnerable people

TrustpilotRichard at Bridgfords Withinton was a great help
Bridgfords Withinton did our conveyancing a year ago. Some of the team were inexperienced (and in one case a bit lazy) but Richard Taylor made up for that by going the extra mile in helping us out. So this positive review is for him. Thank you.

GoogleI chose to go with Bridgfords in Stokesley out if a few estate agents I had been recommended in the area. I’m so glad I chose them, the team they have take you through each step of the process in a way that is clear and as relaxing as it can be, as we all know how stressful selling a house can be. The WhatsApp group they set up for you for quick communication was great and any queries or asks I had were answered or seen to in good time. I thank Bridgfords for making the process go smoothly and I will definitely be recommending them to my friends and family. Thanks team! Sophie

I wrote an email to one of their sales colleagues about a viewing who wouldn't open the door to me. The sales colleague never responded back to my email. Plus they've not bothered to notife me about a property I was interested in but is now sold!

TrustpilotBridgfords Gosforth
Bridgfords Gosforth - categorically the worst letting agents I have ever dealt with. They were very efficient at getting credit checks completed and the rent and deposit organised. After that though the service was appalllng. We picked up they keys a few days before we moved in and noticed a wash basin in the ensuite was smashed, and the premises was generally dirty (not mentioned on the inventory). Rang and advised - and said they could access the property to repair if necessary. It was not repaired when I moved in and I was advised this was because I needed to report through their portal. In the first week I had to report repairs - washing machine not plumbed in, broken toilet seats, kitchen cupboards so dilapidated the drawers fell out when opened, gas fire not working, thermostats missing/broken on radiators, ventilation fans not working plus the smashed basin. It took them 7 weeks to get some of the repairs done, the remainder were outstanding when I left 6 months later. I chased and chased but just got told they aren't priority repairs (repairs on white goods are supposed to be prioritised). Once I handed my notice in they were super efficient at arranging viewings to get some other poor fool to pay £850 to live in a cold badly maintained property.Although I have seen a copy of the check out report which mentioned lots of issues, all of which predated my tenancy, I have never had confirmation that the Land Lord is happy ( They brow beat me into taking a zero deposit arrangement which was very expensive so I don't have a deposit to come back) All in all swift to take your money slow to respond to issues and communications demonstrate how little they care about their tenants. I cannot recommend highly enough that you avoid this business like the plague.

GoogleAbsolutely lovely team, always friendly and keen to assist us in anyway they could. Only negative was we were asked by Bridgfords to pay for 2 different surveys for the buyers. We don’t live in UK so don’t know the normal practices but thought it strange we had to pay for surveys for the buyers. We would definitely recommend using them despite this as they sold our Mother’s house when we were all living scattered around Europe coordinating both with us and our probate company.
Hi Sarah, thank you for sharing your experience with us. We appreciate your kind words about our team. Regarding the surveys, we understand your concern and apologise for any confusion. If you have any further questions or need clarification, please feel free to reach out to us at review@countrywide.co.uk . Thank you for recommending us. Kind regards, Lucy, Customer Relations.

I moved out over a month ago and still haven’t had a single update about the return of my deposit. Sadly, this is entirely in line with the level of service I’ve received from Bridgeford throughout more than five years of renting with them.

Never contact me after numerous call and direct messages. As a landlord I find this appalling. I have tried since may to contact them but to no avail. I am thinking of leaving breaking my contract and go with court action if needed.

TrustpilotYou're a star Ellie
Just wanted to mention the first Class service received by Ellie in the Tynemouth office. She is more than helpful every time I speak to her. I am a Landlady and despite the extremely expensive charges Bridgefords have for every aspect of Letting, it is Ellie who is polite, extremely efficient, always pleasant and a delight to deal with. Service like this needs to be recognised ...Ellie should run the office as nothing is ever too much trouble. I was visiting recently from London and Ellie was off, sadly. Other staff were on the phone and didn't even acknowledge I was there! so rude considering the money I pay them. I am in the Property business myself, so know how people expect to be treated. Well done Ellie, you are an asset to Tynemouth!

TrustpilotLee Johnson from Countrywide…
We met Lee Johnson from Countrywide without any knowledge about house buying or what is needed to make it happen. He enabled us to create our credit profile as we had never had credit before and needed this to get a mortgage. He told us everything about getting the maximum we can afford from our salaries, making sure we had the best mortgage provider/rate and also ensuring that if anything bad was to happen, the house and our earnings would be covered and the house would be paid for! Lee I cannot thank you enough for enabling me and my wife go from renting to homeowners with peace of mind. Especially during a time of mortgage uncertainty (late 2022). Fantastic work! I highly recommend Lee to anyone who is either new to buying/selling or is seeking advice on what to do! THANK YOU! You have made our journey effortless.

TrustpilotI had an appointment booked for today…
I had an appointment booked for today at 2.p.m with the view to put my house on the market so I would be in a position to make an offer on a viewing tomorrow. I received a call around 1.30 to inform me that the agent is running 30 minutes late, making the expected visit for 2.30. 3.15 came. I rang the agents to be told she's not attending. To rub salt in the wounds furthermore I was told she couldn't come to me because of traffic and she would make the visit after me late. Viewing cancelled as I had wasted my day off waiting round for nothing.

Thank you Sam for an amazing service and for ongoing support. You have gone above and beyond the call of duty, Bridgfords is very lucky to have someone of your calibre as an employee!!!!! Wow!!!!

TrustpilotContractors should avoid at all costs!
Contractors should avoid at all costs!! We fitted a cylinder in a property for this agent, and have received no payment, now three month overdue. They tried to pass us onto the landlord when we’ve worked direct with them. We’ve still heard nothing, despite numerous calls, emails, complaints. We will be forced to get a debt recovery involved. Would not recommend working for them!

Just sold my house with Bridgfords in Withington and couldn't fault them.

Huge thanks to the Withington team, especially Richard, Sadaf, David and James. Excellent service from a very helpful team.
