TrustpilotConfusing marketing
There's a For Sale sign been up on a house we've passed a few times over the past 2 weeks but can't find it on their website or Rightmove. I rang one of the branches to be told, indignantly, I'd rang the wrong office. I pointed out that there is no local office and as this one is relatively close by, I thought I'd try them. He said he had 'no idea' but he'd look. Terrible telephone manner, told him I'd look myself. Tried another office and was told it's not being marketed yet as the owner has been choosing the photos. Fair enough but I asked why the sign was up and was told because it's for sale. Very confusing. Sort yourselves out Bridgfords. Glad you aren't selling our house!

GoogleI recommend to avoid: they are expensive, poor service/standards, and not worth it. I tried them as a property seller, they have advertised wrong information about my property, and other properties, to generate viewings. I think this is unethical and unprofessional. Their branch manager will try to convince you that you will be selling next day. A lot of the things they promised will remain promises, e.g. no brochures, no fancy news paper adverts, etc. etc. Just putting my property with them online took them 2 weeks, though they promised it will be online next day.
In short just promises and talks that will never come true with people in this branch.

Just over a year dealing with house sale, took 4 buyers to achieve each pulling out for various reasons. Very patient and communicative throughout whole process. Staff always very professional and helpful. Would recommend Cheadle Hulme branch.

TrustpilotBridgford's Halifax
We used Bridgford's in Halifax to sell our property. My main concern with them was that they hardly ever answered the telephone and relied upon an answer machine. Add onto this the fact that on numerous occasions they didn't return our calls. They didn't manage to sell our property and we do wonder if prospective buyers calls weren't returned either.Secondly feedback from them on enquiries, market data and ongoing support and advice was non existent. Overall customer service was poor to say the least.

TrustpilotWell... AVOID LIKE A PLAGUE
Well, where do I start? I don't recommend this agency at all. All the agents are useless. Customer service, professionalism is lacking at Bridgfords. We rented a property back in 2022, that we had to leave because mould and MICE both h&s hazards weren't solved and reported to the council (with someone vulnerable in the property). The flat was very dirty when we move in and now they are trying to charge us for the cleaning. They painted the flat and now they are trying to get this from our deposit. ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING. we have tried our best to solve these issues, but they have no decency. They always try to blame the landlord but I don't even think the landlord is aware at this point. please look for another agency and make yourself a favour.

Appalling service and very unprofessional letting services ,My wife and I signed up with Bridgeford (Withington office) to find a tenant for our BTL property and things went from bad to worst as we were constantly chasing them for update with progress with no response to our email and their phone was always diverted to an answering machine ,Eventually they found us a tenant and the tenant was moved in on 3rd of Aug but we had to wait until 13th of Aug to receive our rent after chasing them repeatedly plus we are still awaiting payment of DPS monies which we have signed up to our own DPS scheme to secure the holding deposit .After talking to tenants I also found out they had paid the deposit and first month rent at the end of July hoping to move in on 1st of Aug and they were very dissatisfied with Bridgfords handling their process of moving in on 1st of Aug as promised .We used their let -only service and Bridgeford should have released the rent and deposit monies upon letting the property promptly .In hindsight I should have checked their trust pilot review before employing their services .As a landlord I will not be recommending them to any of our friends and fellow landlords.

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude for the exceptional service and efficiency in handling the rental procedures for my new accommodation. I truly appreciate the efforts made by you and your team to ensure a smooth process, despite the complexities involved in my case. As a non-British citizen transitioning from being a student, I was very concerned that the rental process might be challenging and time-consuming. However, you went above and beyond to guide me through the necessary steps and paperwork, making the entire process seamless and stress-free. Once again, thank you for making this crucial transition in my life so smooth and hassle-free.

I was interested in a bungalow showing Bridgfords Northallerton Branch as the agents.Two weeks of daily phone calls brought the same recorded voice, "All our agents are busy, leave etc., etc.," which I did - NOTHING - No response of any kind.Send a detailed message on their query form, result- NOTHING.If I was a Seller, and not a Buyer, I would, after reading results on Trust Pilot, never,ever, use them.I am still interested in this bungalow, but, apart from going to the people directly, I can only wish them luck in EVER selling through Bridgfords, unless this is already sold, and they are "too busy" to mark this property as so!Very disappointed, as I registered with them and still never heard anything.The saga continues.....

TrustpilotHappy to waste your time
Awful experience. It started with receiving numerous phone calls despite being informed that I was unavailable that day. My original viewing had been rearranged without my consent or informing me, to a day that I had stated I was unavailable. Resulting in no estate agent showing up to my originally scheduled viewing. When phoned to find out what was happening the estate agent rearranged to later that day, to which they didn't show up again because they had miss placed the keys to the property, resulting in wasting 3 hours of my day off, and untold worry to the sellers. Absolutely disgraceful service, with no respect for their clients time or property.

TrustpilotAvoid this company at all costs
This estate agents are the worst I have ever dealt with. I have had a deposit issue with them since 2022 and this has remained unresolved because the branch manager is very unhelpful, obnoxious and rude. She doesn’t have the word assist or help in her vocabulary. I have had several conversations with her via email but somehow on my recent contact she has sent a reply citing confidentiality. Yet she has sent emails with personal information and details previously. After that she commands you to call the office phone which is never answered.

The worst experience I have ever had with an agency.They are rude and not professional. They pretended to have the money via call before I even received a proper contract for the flat.Then, they told me to get the keys and find the flat by myself. They did not even show me where the flat is. I will avoid to have deals with them in the future.

TrustpilotAvoid this agency by all means
Avoid this agency by all means. They attract landlords who will lie to you about the history of the property and it’s current state (mine was infested with massive rats which the landlord claim to know nothing about until I called exterminators who found evidence from a different extermination team)The staff will make promises to you and not fulfil them ( I agreed to take a contract pending they would clean the property, however it was inhabitable for 3 days before the landlord arrived to clean. Agency promised to refund those three days but choose to ignore this state 6 months down the line and this cost me money as the tenant.I have never written a review in my life and I’ve rented for 10+ now and I have experience a lot. I would never recommend this agency even to my worse enemy.

TrustpilotWorst renting experience in our lives.
Worst experience we’ve ever had as tenants. We rent a property from Bridgfords lettings Durham Branch. We’ve rented property for many years but have never been in this situation before. We’ve been living without hot running water for months now (comes out the tap like ice). The boiler stopped working in December. Bridgfords sent out an engineer who got the central heating working but couldn’t get the hot water to work. The engineer told Bridgfords that the boiler needs replacing. They still haven’t replaced it. To top it all, they’ve been deceptive in the emails they’ve sent, stating in February that they’d contacted an engineer to fit the boiler and that we should “look out for our phone ringing” only to be now told that they’re “waiting for a cheque to clear”.I can only think the 2.5 stars is because shortly after moving in they badger you with emails to give them a Trustpilot review before you’ve had a chance to see their true colours. Appalling, not worth 1 star.

Bridgfords Cheadle delivered exceptional service in selling my late mothers property.
The sale was seamless and nothing was too much effort for them.
Special appreciation to Kate McEvoy. Her professionalism and determination to see the sale through to completion was detrimental and it is a debt we as a family could never repay to her.
Thank you all again for all your help.

They were always there to talk and would reply to emails quickly. They really eased the stress of moving into a new home. I will definitely be using them again in the future and will be recommending them to family and friends who move within the area. Thanks so much to the whole team at Bridgfords x
