Katie Leslie from the Sale Branch, dealt with the letting of our property, she was very professional and helpful, answered all our queries and kept us up date all the way through.

TrustpilotTerrible agency
Terrible agency. Moved into the property in November and waited months for repairs to be done. Some repairs are still not done now. Everybody that works at Bridgfords takes ages to reply or just ignores your email. Spoke to a manager on the phone who was extremely rude and did not have the time of day to speak to me. Overall, the Hacienda branch have been very disappointing and have made my move not enjoyable.

A deplorable and unscrupulous business. Tenants have to chase and chase for their bond monies to be repaid and during the chase, Bridgfords lie,lie and lie.

GoogleAbsolutely brilliant! Our previous agent were extremely awful which had made me very nervous about renting again altogether. However these guys are absolutely brilliant!! Awesome. No problems, all smoothly. Worth every penny. Constant communication and they have even followed up with me about how we were doing a few weeks later - i have had no issues with them whatsoever and we are very glad to be dealing with such a brilliant team of agents :)!

Stay Away !!Untrustworthy and remember NO verbal agrements of repairs etc are kept.Cause they will charge you and then ignore you.In my experience No cleaning and No repairs will be carried out after you have signed your contract and paid them your hard earned money.STAY AWAY !!

TrustpilotDon’t waste your time
Their agent failed to turn up to a property viewing. We called the agent and the office several times and no one picked up so we went to their office and booked another appointment for later that day. They then failed to turn up to the second appointment and when we went to the office again, showed no remorse and did not apologise. Will never ever book with them again. They’re rude and unprofessional.

Dealt with a guy called zahid should have known really never to go ahead, once they had the sale wasn’t interested, pushed into putting the house on the market telling me I’ve spent a lot of time at your house! Very proffesional, was asked to reduce price after 2 weeks, long story with the rest of it but I would stay clear, hence I took my house off the market with them,

TrustpilotAccepted property and then they rang to say they’ve accepted someone else!!
I was accepted a property by them and I sent all paperwork over and two weeks later they phoned saying I was accepted as a higher bidder was accepted. Why accept me and my offer to disappoint two weeks later. Do not use this estate agent very bad service and not happy at all. They are useless I will be using somewhere else.

TrustpilotRude
Rude, unhelpful and abrupt. They don't care about the tenant. All they care about is keeping the landlords happy and not losing the landlords custom. They could give no s#*ts about the people actually paying money. Stay away because they are not helpful. I got upset about a job that needed doing and was told that "you took the house as it is, there's nothing we can do". Just Wow

Not the best experience over a two year period. During our stay in their letting they were the most inconsiderate bunch. If there was a problem it was your fault. The landlord was always right. At the end of the tenancy their deposit holding arm Countrywide did their very best to withhold some of it, even though the property was in a better state when we left it.

I want to let you know that I am complaining to you because you are careless. my husband called for a house yesterday and you were going to call us back, you didn't do that. today when he came back to you with a phone call, you tell us that there are no more places to see the house. I do not recommend.

TrustpilotTerrible customer service, will happily take your deposit but never give it back
Terrible customer service. Been waiting over a month for my deposit back after getting the checking out report (which came back fine) keep getting told it’s the landlords fault. Will be seeking legal advice and charging them the deposit, legal fees and their standard late payment fees as detailed on there account if I was to have paid my rent late (which I never did)
