TrustpilotSTAY AWAY!!!! SCAMMERS!!!!
Why I need to give them one rate star. They don't deserve even for 0.Scammers and unprofessionalls.September 1st I should have moved to a rented flat in Manchester. On the pics and you tube short movie sent by this agency( which are old to attract attention !!!) everything looks very nice.In the reality completely different. Place is not in a good condition to live in, not even in a basic. It's not health and safety. Flat had not been cleaned after previous tenant or even tenants(if someone really lived before). Inspection had not been done before my moving date. Mould is everywhere in the flat, walls are dirty (black),gas cooker is damaged, knobs pop out and using of it may cause fire and even explosion, there is no possibility to open windows, in case of a gas leaking or dense smoke there's no chance to make flow of air, in case of a fire the only one way to escape is through main door only, smell of this flat is disgusting, grouty mould in the bathroom. Old, dirty mattress with stains. Old shaking wardrobe that may collapse and cause injury. A devastated piece of furniture inside the room. Living there may cause serious health and safety problems.Flat should have been prepared before moving. But no one did anything.Letting agent/Landlord was not in the flat during moving in. Key collection in the branch. Flat looks like an abandoned place!!!!Straight away I gave termination to the landlord due to negligence.I asked for a full refund but they are not (letting agency/ landlord)willingness to do this.I recorded video and took some pictures (if someone would like to see, pls contact me)One week after my moving date agency sent cleaners (8th September)cleaners to that flat. Next day I came there to take a look at a result. Cleaners done - bathtube, toilet. In the kitchen - worktops, cupboards and top of the gas cooker.Knobs from the gas cooker poped out as previously.Walls not even touched. Mould still there. Rest as I mentioned above.I returned keys to the letting agency.Next week (Monday 12Sep) I received an email from letting agency that landlord agreed to release me from the contract but wants to keep my deposit which I think in these matter is absolutely not fair.I'm feeling scammed depressed,broken down and humiliated.If you will find good place in a very attractive price and want to arrange viewings then agency usually will never give you any response or send response that flat/house is not available anymore.If you call them and say you're interested and ready to pay then you attract attention.Agency and landlord earned money and have you deep in their ......!!!!Shame I can't puy in here pics and movie.I lost £1290. Luckily I could come back to my former place. Otherwise I would be homeless or had to move into that ruin place.STAY AWAY and RUN AWAY!!!!! Not worth your health. Do not waste your time.Branch in Chorlton, Manchester

TrustpilotThey rented me a house at 26 Jefferson…
They rented me a house at 26 Jefferson Walk ST16 1WF and I listened to construction noises for 1 year and they forced me to sign an additional contract for 1 year even though I told them before. They tried to rent me this house above market prices. When I left, they had no other choice so they rented it to others at a lower price. They are not honest and try to rip people off. Also, do not trust the zero deposit system, they work together and try to get money from you

TrustpilotHad to call numerous times over two…
Had to call numerous times over two days before someone answered, waited a week for the viewing to be called two two hours before for confirmation I was attending, then one hour before they call again and cancel because someones car broke down. Absolute pants.

TrustpilotGlad I wasn’t the seller
Tried to book a viewing of a property that had been on the market for almost a year. Had to call twice before I got a response. They couldn’t offer anything sooner than a week after my call. No wonder the house hadn’t sold.

TrustpilotVery professional experience and a friendly team!
Amazing experience from start to finish - special shout out to Jack at the Stafford branch who helped us chase all elements of our chain to ensure we completed as fast as possible. Very professional experience and a friendly team! We also received a very nice welcome pack when we collected our keys, which was a lovely touch.

TrustpilotDear sir/ madam
Dear sir/ madamI am writing to you to inform you that I currently live in cubic apartments in Preston. I've been living there for eight months now with myself and my partner my day job i dpund out found that a lad had been squatting in one of the flats he's been letting homeless people into the building and on numerous occasions they been seen selling drugs. Also damaging letterboxes and robbing people's mail. Pictures were put up of males ecr I informed ppm management there room number and police but males still live there day and night it's getting bad my misses is scared I have to walk her every were. Were moving soon but this is not on. I should not have to move because police and building people don't do anything. I'm informing you hopefully something can be done soon .he'd been selling drugs and bridgefords refused to help at all. They were not helpful at all they have a duty of care and didn't care at all just about there money .

TrustpilotGreat experience with the Gosforth branch
Great experience with the Gosforth branch. I’d been struggling for almost 6 months with another estate agent to get my flat ready and tenanted. It only took Jennalise and team 2-3 weeks to have the apartment readied and tenanted after taking the keys from the other agent. She was very hands-on, responsive and professional. Thank you so much!

Googlewell, as mentioned in the comments before, they won't accept your offer unless you go through them with the mortgage which is illegal etc. Super fishy, very slow communication, virtually impossible to get hold of anyone even to arrange a viewing. Do not sell your house through them, you will just lose potential buyers that are ready to pay more for your property but won't do it due to incompetence of the staff. I'm surprised no one action any legal charges against them , i'm sure that's illegal saying to buyers your offer won't be passed to the seller and you won't be recommended to the seller unless you go with the mortgage/conveyance through them...

TrustpilotVery unsatisfactory experience so far!
Put in an offer on an already vacant flat at the beginning of the week as the property I'm currently in has sold so i need to find somewhere urgently and this fitted the bill perfectly.. Rang them back today to find out why I've not heard anything from them to only find out they still had not submitted my offer to the seller and that they would be doing it today and would get back to me later about the outcome of my offer..surprise surprise i have not heard anything back from them im appalled at their lack of enthusiasm I thought they were ment to be selling properties not sitting on them!! I also mistakenly thought they were a reputable estate agents until I read all the negative reviews on here some with the similar experience I'm currently having with them!!

TrustpilotVery bizarre ethos
My wife and I found a property of interest being marketed by the Washington branch. We were in a very strong position regarding our status as we are actually completing on our current property on the 30th and prepared to move into rented to get the right house moving forward. This was pointed out to the representative who took the phone call. We viewed the property and I must say the young lady who came out was very friendly and professional. It was very clear from both the pictures and the live viewing that the property required a lot of work both inside and out to make it liveable. We exercised due diligence and found that the property next door had been on the market in June 2024 for exactly the same price as the one we had interest in but it had been fully modernised, had an extension and fully landscaped garden. We felt a below asking price was in order taking this information into consideration and made contact again with the Washington office. The offer was put forward and we were told as it was 5 minutes to closing they would contact the vendors Monday and be in touch. Monday came and went with no follow up call. Today I rang back in and spoke to the exact person I’d discussed the offer with and he seemed totally un phased he hadn’t made any contact with an update. I explained the rational behind the offer regarding the house next door and he replied ahhh that house is much smaller. When I pointed out we had the original listing in front of us and it was exactly the same he just said oh and moved on. Again we explained the situation and even intimated we may go up a little. He said he would go back to the vendors and call me back. Well would you believe it still no call back. I’m really now not surprised after reading the rest of the reviews on here but I do hope someone of a higher level reads this and maybe educates this chap on the art of selling and negotiating. Right now he’s more sales prevention and a poor representative for front of house sales. We will move on and look elsewhere.

TrustpilotScheming, conniving people
They were nice enough when I wanted to rent a property. Not so nice at the end of my tenancy when they withheld my ENTIRE deposit without providing any breakdown of costs, reasoning and ignored all my requests. I had to make a claim through the My Deposits scheme who eventually recovered most of my deposit back. Company were useless, unhelpful, rude and trying to take advantage of a young girl living by herself. Well you made a bad choice because I got back what was mine, no thanks to you, and will NEVER rent or buy through yourselves again.

TrustpilotNot even worth one star
Not even worth one star. I am the landlord and I received the worst service I've ever experiences. If you want to be ignored for weeks and lose money, use their service. I was holding off at giving this review hoping that things will improve, but after weeks of chasing my emails were falling on the deaf ears. First of all, accounts either too busy or too incompetent to deal with basic request, not willing to investigate any repair issues charges, the companies they are using to fix the property are doing botched jobs, resulting in hundreds of pounds loses. Sheer irresponsibility and lack of professionalism, unwillingness to help or resolve any problems leaves you humiliated as a customer, I would go quietly if I wasn't paying any money, but since I'm being charged EACH MONTH for the service which I COULD DO MYSELF, I think I deserve to say something! I really hope I can close my account as soon as possible because I'm really done with being neglected. Can I just ask, how hard is it to reply to an email? Be prepared to wait a week, of FOUR in my case. Horrible, caused huge distress and I really hope your management take note of all the negative response EVERYWHERE and do something about it. Lettings agency on the other hand in Swinton on the other hand is lovely and Hannah Smith was particularly help full, than her for that.

TrustpilotFully recommend Northallerton office.
Unexpectedly looking for a rental property in Northallerton, North Yorkshire. Worked with Ollie and Maria throughout the process. Very attentive, spoke with me out of hours and at weekends and helped me with my property search. I would thoroughly recommend the Northallerton lettings office to other potential clients. In addition, I am still waiting calls back from other agents 3 days later!

TrustpilotMortgage adviser at Halifax branch
Lee the mortgage adviser at the Halifax West Yorkshire branch is amazing. I was trying to get my property re-mortgaged and as this was the first time I’d gone through it I was a bit nervous to say the least. The property in question was my dads who had passed away. Lee was brilliant, I did really know what I was doing and I had spoken to many different mortgage advisers. After speaking with them I just through the others just wanted my money but Lee was different. He spent time explaining everything to me and was always there if I needed him. Was hard to get him on the phone but he would email back as soon as he could. He did everything right for me and I highly recommend him. I will be going back to him once my term has come to an end, every time.

TrustpilotBridgefords Tameside lost trust…
good at getting you to sign the dotted line to sell your property, started off viewings turning up with no bookings, dealing with different staff members, delay in reply’s and emails sometimes ignoring them all together. we sold after 3 days to a buyer who was known to them (previous employee). only to find out that she been informed of a new property viewed it and offer accepted less than 24hrs of going on Rightmove. Went on Rightmove on the 16th we received an email midday on 17th to inform us she pulled out. now going with a different agent hopefully a trusted one

TrustpilotHighly recommend
Beverly/Nicola and team at the Burnley Branch have been utterly amazing dealing with my property purchase. Super quick responses to emails, calls. Friendly service. I couldn't of asked for a better service. Highly recommended.They are a credit to this company.
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.
