FacebookThey let us a flat and said the windows are currently being repaired. 4months later with snow outside and our flat is now covered in mold, and freezing cold due to the broken window and frames still being damaged. The estate agents have ignored calls and emails thinking this is ok conditions to live in

TrustpilotDisgusting estate agents
Disgusting estate agents, so unprofessional it isn't even funny. Make you stand outside your own property in the freezing rain whilst they take someone in to view, leave the front door open whilst they are in there letting out the heat, don't get back to you with a response, never available to talk, constantly lie. Taking sign down, no point in advertising their name if they don't do anything, oh yes, and couldn't make a viewing appointment as IT WAS RAINING, but ok for me to stand outside in rain.

GoogleI cannot speak poorly enough about these people. No letting management skills - electrics not signed off, work not done for months, no communication, high charges. Friends of ours have had problems in selling through them with lost deeds, a lack of knowledge on how to sell a house etc. On top of all this, they sell your details to mobile, utility and other companies to make some more out of you.

Dear Mr Willett, I am sorry you have felt that we have not managed the property to a level you feel is acceptable. Having spoken to our property management team they have told me that the Landlord agreed to have an electrical fixed wiring test carried out which was unable to be completed prior to your moving in as you had requested to move in as soon as possible and, as we were redecorating the property for you, we simply could not complete this in time. Once the test was carried out some points had been highlighted as needing addressing which we made the Landlord aware of, unfortunately the Landlord has not authorised us to carry out these works and so we have not been able to. We have spoken to our contractor and they have tried to contact you multiple times but unfortunately unless an appointment can be agreed we cannot complete works. It is my understanding the works are now complete. I can see numerous points of communication between yourself and our property management team but please do let me know of any specific instances where communication has been an issue and I will look into these for you as I can appreciate issues to do with communication can be very frustrating. All of the charges associated with the let were clearly laid out in the documentation we sent to you prior to the tenancy commencing which you signed to agree to. We pride ourselves on delivering customer service to the highest standard at Watson Bull and Porter and your feedback enables us to review our procedures and processes to ensure our standards are always maintained. If there is anything else I can help with in the future please feel free to contact me on 01983 327105.

TrustpilotMore interested in selling other services
Agents are more interested in selling other services than houses - so pushy and they make up lies to try and get you to use their brokers. So rude on the phone, and by E-mail, they don't pass offers to buyers which is illegal. Don't sell or buy a house from this company. Awful.
