TrustpilotI made the mistake of going with Fox and Sons, Bexhill
I made the mistake of going with Fox and Sons in May, and they turned out to be terrible. I dumped them and went with another estate agent. That would have been the end of it, and I wouldn't have left a bad review but... I specifically asked for them to remove my details from their system, and not receive any marketing. Low and behold, I started receiving marketing calls today. So, here's my review of them; Terrible photos, and I had to take my own high def' ones in the end, and even those, they managed to pixelate and screw up when they put them on the web. Even though I showed them round, they kept sending agents to viewings who hadn't been here before, and had no idea where anything was (a large sprawling property). They push all their own financial services and conveyancers, who are rubbish, and have numerous bad reviews on the internet. I had no idea who was in charge, or who I was dealing with from week to week, and they lied about their database of potential buyers. In any case, if I receive any more marketing calls from them I am reporting them to the police for harassment. Don't use them.

TrustpilotNo respect for GDPR
I made the mistake of calling to view a house with fox and sons. I then decided not to go ahead and have not stopped receiving calls or emails since. I have repeatedly asked to be taken off their contact lists and for them to delete my data from their records but to no avail

TrustpilotGDPR data breach
My property is for sale with another estate agent. Fox and Sons have my details as they were one of the agents I invited to make a valuation. I didn't mind them phoning a few months later asking if I would reconsider and use them. I politely declined and told them I would contact them if interested and under GDPR regulations remove my data from their records. They promised to do this but have phoned again. Is this a GDPR data breach? Probably..Will I use them after this latest call? No. Will I be rude and make a complaint about a data breach if they call again? Certainly. Pushy

Trustpilotif you are a buyer avoid them
Appalling service. I had an offer accepted on an apartment in early August and as of Sept 10 had still not heard from them. Phone calls and emails go unanswered. when I finally got one of them on the phone his reaction was the immortal words - well if you need to pull out then do that. If you are a buyer avoid them like the plague

TrustpilotApplied for an MIP with local firmβ¦
Applied for an MIP with local firm thinking would get a more personal service. Tried back in early July and no response for a few days so decided service was not great! Wanted a responsive service. Then decided would have another go and sent salary slips as requested to the broker 19th July. No response at all to date! Now going to go to an online national service.

GoogleWorst agent I have ever used. Incompetent and do not care. The customer service is appalling. Booked in a viewing, never received any confirmation. Tried calling for 2 days to make sure the viewing was still booked but no answer. Out of sheer desperation to find somewhere to live decided to book a train anyway to view the propertyβ¦From Cheltenham!! An Β£87 ticket! Only to be told that the property is no longer available. They only told me this after I rang them constantly, as they didnβt even bother to call. AVOID these agents at all cost! Will never use them again!

GoogleI have been dealing with Leah for a number of months. Having dealt with many Mortgage advisors in recent years I can honestly say Leah provides a top tier service. Her dedication to providing a tailored package that suits my needs is second to none. I have been able to assess many options without being rushed, had all costs explained in simple terms and finished with product that I am satisfied with. Great job Leah, Fox and Sons should be grateful to have you as an employee. Thank you for your hard work!

GoogleI have delayed writing this review as Iβm not one to typically do so. However I am fed up now and feel this is the only resort. The house I bought was listed with Fox and Sons but I bought it through another agency. I phoned Fox and Sons to let them know about the completion of the sale and to get their sales board removed back when I got the keys in may 2022 and was told it would be collected. When I moved in around September it was still outside laying down in my front area. I then called again to have it removed and they said they would get back to me. Fast forward to January and it still was not removed. I called again in January/February to complain about this delay and to request again that their board be removed. I was told a manager would look into the request and the board would be collected ASAP. It is now March 2023 and I have not heard anything back nor has the board been collected. I believe this shows Fox and Sons simply do not care as what else would be the reason for the board to still remain on my property for 10 months.
