Bridgfords Marple reviews in Stockport

Not 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.

Made an offer on a property

Made an offer on a property. Which was accepted. Property was removed from rightmove. Had a survey carried out RICs survey 2. Before even getting the Survey report back. The property was back on rightmove. As Bridgfords driving up cost for there commission on property sales. Blaming cooperate client. Very poor practice stay clear of.

I was tenant for 8 years

I was tenant for 8 years, problems with communication, leaking roof repaired after 6 months, need it to call every 2 weeks to have an answer that "we will contact landlord, team or anyone else in the next 1 hour". Yeah 6 months water was leaking on my head. The best part is that something like that is with everything. Now I'm waiting for my deposit after when I moved out. There is barely any communication, no confirmation and very bad service even at the end of my tenancy. If you like problems and bad service you can do the business with Bridgfords. If you like good service and nice people you need to look anywhere else.

Mortgage 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.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the team at Bridgfords, Marple, but in particular, Megan Chatterton, for making a difficult process more bearable! Megan was brilliant at keeping me updated on the sale of my parents' house and always called back when I had left a message. Over six months she followed up every query with patience and good humour, professionally dealing with a sometimes distraught client (me) and solicitors who were invariably 'in a meeting'! It is to her credit that this process was finally resolved and I have no hesitation in recommending Bridgfords on the strength of my dealings with Megan.

Bridgfords Denton

Cant recommend Bridgfords Denton enough. Bought through them recently. The team were so helpful throughout. Great communication, nothing was too much trouble. Aldo used their mortgage advisor, Gemma. She was fantastic. Never dealt with a broker like her! She went through the whole process in detail and always on hand to answer any questions I had! Many thanks to Ryan, Stacey, Adam and Gemma. You guys made what could have been a stressful so smooth!

Apalling handling of my mother-in-laws…

Apalling handling of my mother-in-laws property. Took a massive %age of the rent, did nothing for the money, never communicated, never responded to messages or calls, left us with a squatting tennant for over a year after being serviced notice, never checked the property properly, never followed up on the deposit so we lost that as well. One star is far too much to give them. I suggest you never consider using this company.

4th tennant same issues- damp, mould, negligence

I am the forth tennant leaving my current rental property with the same letting agency and landlord due to the same issues. Mold, damp, negligence and conditions quite frankly not fit for living. I'm breaking my tenancy agreement with permission of the landlord, however never expected to be hit with Bridgfords re-housing fee because quite frankly didn't expect bridgfords to take on this property with a now fifth tennant following years of the same issues not fixed. The 95 year old landlord lord is maybe not able to care for this property but I'm not reviewing him right now. There's something really sinister about a company needing capital gain to the degree that they are willing to miss sell and mislead another tennant into this property a fifth time. Please please stay away.Edit- just noticed that they have a new tennant already from a video viewing alone. Pictures posted of the property are from years ago. Next tennant likely spun the same lines as me, "we are so busy with viewings on this property it's so desirable we can't possibly fit you in, take the video viewing and we advise you to go for it within the next 24 hours before it gets snapped up" there have been no physical viewings of this property whilst I have been here. This is miss selling and pressure sell tactics. The next person will likely have had to pay the same heavy holding fee as me, there rent has gone up by £50 and their deposit by £200 from the 7 month's when I came in with minimal work done on the neglected property. This company is predatory.

Chris Parkin was my mortgage broker

Chris Parkin was my mortgage broker, really helpful I had been told from another company that I would not be able to get a mortgage, Chris went above and beyond to make it happen. We had issues with the lender taking unnecessary time on some issues Chris chased them everyday and I am now in my lovely new home. I will definitely recommend Chris in the future.

made me complete 5 recaptchas to unsubscribe from their spammy emails. this is a tactic to waste people's time so they give up and stay signed up to emails. why would I need to prove my identity to unsubscribe from emails? even a hacker would have better things to do

Just don't waste your time

If you want a company of people with minimal care for you and the process, who don't do what they tell you they are going to do, and then when you're trying to find out where things are up to, never answer the phone, Bridgfords are the one.

Avoid This Rubbish Terrible company

Avoid This Rubbish Terrible companyI was trying to apply mortgage through this TRRRIBLE company, the lady called Katy Gregg mortgage advisor ruined everything, messed up all things . The property I was going to buy didn't work out. They have waste my time and my money which I spend on searches. She was pushing me to buy a property with Bridgford. This is the reason she messed up every thing and I lost the offer was accepted on property. This behaviour is unprofessional and unethical, Dishonesty/ lack of transparency and totally unprofessionalism. Absolute disgusting customer service. Bridgfords Stockport Absolute RUBBISH, They don't deserve even a one star. waste of time, waste of money, DISGUSTING

Lack of communication, unethical and unprofessional Practices

I had a very disappointing experience with [Agency Name]. I initially booked a viewing for a flat that was on sale, only to find out the appointment was cancelled because the flat was sold, and they forgot to inform me.Giving them another chance, I booked a viewing for another property. However, they insisted that I use their mortgage advisor even though I already had one and an Agreement in Principle. When I refused to change my mortgage advisor, they immediately cancelled my viewing appointment. This kind of behaviour is unprofessional and unethical. I would not recommend this agency to anyone.

AVOID this agent

AVOID this agent! We only went with Bridgfords Stockport, after they missold a open house drive to sell our home, however they missed us out of the drive completely. They then refused to let us leave, even though we were well within the cooling off period. They did not include any floorplan at launch, we complained and they eventually uploaded a floorplan for another home, this floorplan had rooms, doors, open plan areas, windows and alcoves that did not exist, while missing doors windows and a porch. They also measured wrong, with a 13 foot room being marketed as a 20 foot room. Even after knowing it was the wrong floor plan, and they were misleading potential buyers, they refused to remove it until we had completed OUR OWN REPLACEMENT!! They promised to keep in touch and provide feedback. They have not once called us, and have failed to provide feedback or a single viewer. We provided the photos, the floorplan, the measurements, had to change the description and even had to instruct them to use tags on Rightmove, they have done absolutely nothing and yet charge over £1000 more than other large agents. We have asked them to remove our home from the market, or at least to remove our intellectual property - the floorplan and the photos we took, however they are still listing our home for sale, using our photos and floorplan even though we do not wish to sell. We now face having to drag this through the courts, and involving the ombudsman.
