GoogleAustin & Wyatt, London Road, are currently selling the flat I've been a tenant at for over 15 years and have been seemingly unable to treat me with the basic respect a long standing tenant would expect to receive. They regularly inform me of viewings on the same day as the viewing, despite the requirement to give me 24 hours notice and me continuously asking them to do so. Today I spoke to the manager in person, asking them to give me 24 hours notice for viewings on two separate e-mail addresses. An hour later I received a text message informing me of the viewing, with no e-mails sent despite my request. In addition to the lack of respect shown regarding viewings, they left me without a working oven for the entirety of the Christmas period - nearly a month passed before anything was done to fix this. They appear to have little to no regard for their tenants or be in any way committed to providing them with a good level of service. Whilst I understand the property is on the market for sale, this is, ultimately, my home and Austin and Wyatt do not seem to give a monkeys.

GoogleAbsolutely wonderful staff. Have had contact with AJ, George and Daryl. They are all cheerful, caring, professional, knowledgeable and most of all trustworthy. They really do care about you and treated us with respect at all times. My mum is elderly and I can honestly say all three treated her as if she was there mum! Fantastic. I know mum felt so safe with them in the house doing viewings and so did I. Thank you so much… customer service like this is rare!

I wont hear from you guys for atleast a week to 3 months until you guys decide to call me whenever you feel like.

GoogleThe member of staff who showed me round the property was very professional and did his job well. However this company is very sneaky with hidden costs they dont tell you about until after you have paid a holding fee, in my case I had to pay £500 holding fee. If I backed out I would loose that money. So on top of two months rent up front I also had nearly £1000 in hidden charges which they should state BEFORE you pay the holding fee. It was a massive amount of money and I went in the estate agents happy with things and came out fuming. I'm not blaming Nathan as I'm sure this is "COMPANY PROCEDURE". A new law has come out to stop these charges so they will probably add a grand to the fist months rent to claw it back @A&W be honest with you customers and not mislead them! All cost should be made clear from THE START.

GoogleADDED ON BEHALF OF Cassie & Gary Munnoch
Selling our house was proving difficult and it had been on the market for 4 months with Purplebricks. It was on the market off the market and so on. Then Sarah knocked the door. She asked if she could help sell our house and gave us a run down of how Austin & Wyatt work. She said she had some people looking for a house in the area. We agreed to sign up as we really needed help. Within 3 days our house was sold! Just like that! Happy buyers happy sellers and happy Sarah. I would definitely recommend. They were professional and trustworthy, which is exactly what we needed after giving someone else our money for nothing! It's true what they say..... you get what you pay for!!!

GoogleI cannot warn you enough of how bad the service at this business is. Please please please do not use this letting agents. Me and my flatmates have experienced countless problems with our house and even after reporting them for the second time now, haven’t been fixed. Radiators not working in the winter months is quite serious and Austin Wyatt simply do not care. Not to mention other broken items such as the dishwasher, outside drain, wardrobe door and poorly kept garden. Please do not be fooled by the pictures on their website and do not at all costs use this agency.
I know the response will be to talk to a countrywide email address but this is simply Austin Wyatt passing the blame elsewhere and a further example of how poor they are at sorting problems with their clients.

GoogleFrom the first viewing with Nathan, I was pleased How professional he was. He is punctual and polite. I feel he did well to get us into the property in the short time frame. His overall representation of his company was a good one. However I was surprised at the total fees that were charged and at this point in could not back out or loose the holding fee cash. Previous fees at other rented property's were cheaper. Just a pointer for A&W, if you could inform tenants before the holding fee is paid. Your admin charges and total fees, it did come as a shock.

GoogleAbsolute joke. Tried calling a few times from 9am to 11am and it constantly went to voicemail. Left a message for them to call me back. 2 hours later, no response so called another branch to see if they were open. The lady I spoke to said she would send them an email and get someone to call me back. 3 hours later, and after trying to call again a couple of times, still no response or call back. Called the other branch again and the same lady said she would call them and chase herself and that someone would call me back. It's now 1pm the next day and still no response.
If the company are this incompetent when it comes to picking up a phone and calling a potential new customer, then I dread to think what they're like as an estate agent.
