TrustpilotNo Enthusiasm
My son is looking for his first home to buy. He called Connell repeatedly about a flat he was interested in and they didn’t make much effort to call him back or set anything up. In the end I had to call and arrange a viewing.Son and his dad went on the viewing. The agent was very halfhearted and didn’t show any enthusiasm about the property. Very underwhelmed.

Poor communication. Go with another estate agent. Connels is hopeless.

TrustpilotThe perfect name actually CON-nells.
The perfect name actually CON-nells.I was happy till the day before move-in but since this agency is full of fraudsters; they lie and deceive you till you make any payments and once that is done with good faith then they start ignoring you because that's what con artists do.

GoogleThe experience of dealing with Connells, from the initial consultation and valuation from Tyler, to the phone interaction and feedback from Laura and Eva, have all been conducted in a highly professional and helpful manner. The proof of the pudding is that they generated a stream of potential buyers through my door. Well done to the team at Connells and thank you.

Went to them to rent a house,booked a viewing. Got a call on viewing day that they had to rebook, i took another day off work for the viewing just to get another call saying that the landlord doesn't accept us because i get in work beneffits...this was meant to be disscussed after viewing not before and in my opinion Michelle has this house put asside for some of her friends. Totally unprofessional

TrustpilotCon - nells
Put in a offer with connells estate agents and basically forcing our hand to use there in house mortgage adviser or else they wouldn’t put forward our offer, we had all or correct documents and a mortgaging principle. Which I later found out was illegal! They basically told me I’m not interested in the house due to not using their in house mortgage adviser.

GoogleI'm very pleased and satisfied about Robert Westell how he managed to make my mum very happy with her purchase of the flat, I strongly recommend him and his team, he is a very good mortgage advisor and he will help you on all the journey that you have on purchase a house/flat.
5/5
GoogleRob, Laura and the rest of the Connells team were great. The conveyancing took a very long time and the Connells team did everything they could to keep things progressing and managed to arrange an extension on the mortgage offer. Lots of communication and good response times, I’ll certainly be using them again.

Would not book a viewing for a flat without first making me come to their office to push their own morgage advisor who comes with a £599 price tag. They said that this was due to them recieving too many "time-wasters".

TrustpilotStill awaiting refund
Was informed i would receive a refund of my holding fee from the plymouth branch for a property that was taken off the market. Have still not received this a MONTH later and am stuck in a loop of the branch blaming the accounts department and vice versa. Also have been informed that i am only due a partial refund even though i never received any services from them. Do not trust.

The worst Agency to deal with was running late to meeting that was arranged only 20mins prior to me leaving and this is at peak traffic, the guy was so rude because I was going to be late, would not let me speak kept talking to me how bad I am. Worst Agency ever will never sell or buy through them ever

TrustpilotWorst Agent Ever
Awful communicationBooked viewing in person but then 8 minutes before the confirmed time another email arrived to say that this would be a Desk Top Valuation - meaning agent would not even attend the property to view. What a waste of time!!!

TrustpilotAwful
Never rent using Connells as a letting agent. They are completly clueless in their Dorchester office, have don't even realise have their contract is either out of date practice or not even law. Avoid.

TrustpilotGot to be the worst surveyors
Got to be the worst surveyors I’ve ever dealt with. When I apply for a mortgage this embarrassment are always the ones who ruin the process. They don’t value the flat, they value the street with their eyes closed. Anyone could do their job. Hopeless. They’ve obviously got a cheap contract with these mortgages companies, to save mortgage companies from paying the full loan to value.

TrustpilotDisappointed
We signed up with Connells on 31st May and were promised the heavens. From then until now we have had one viewing and yesterday they got our viewing mixed up with another property. Do they even know what they are doing in those offices. Very disappointed and would not recommend Connells to anyone.

There are bunch of crooks liar We had three valuation they’re all pretty much was on the similar price when these guys come to do your survey for my flat don’t lie to the lender so please if you have these guys to come to do a survey told to F off because it will let you down they are racist and rude.

TrustpilotDO NOT USE. These are liars and frauds.
DO NOT USE.After agreeing to let a property to me, they phone 1-week before the move-in date to inform me that they have let it to someone else, despite my having paid the 'holding deposit'. To make matters worse the agent giggled down the phone as she informed me that I was a week from homelessness.Evidently the holding deposit is worthless and offers a tenant no security.

TrustpilotThere survey report was rubbish and…
There survey report was rubbish and full of assumptions rather than facts. Since moving into the property we have serious issues which should have been reported.There lack of response speaks volumes.I have a brain tumour and advised not to get into stressfull situations alas they have made my heath worse. I have complained to RICS and I suggest others do the same.
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.
