GoogleI have had the pleasure of dealing with Taylors since 2010 when my contact was Rachel Harris. Rachel looked after my property and found tenants on two separate occasions whilst I was living overseas. It gave me complete peace of mind that Taylors would re-market my property and produce good quality viewings, rather than just getting people through the door.
I have had to let out the same property in 2012 and again Taylors were the agent who were most competitive on fees, and produced the most viewings. Chelsea Barber has been my contact, and again the service has been exceptional, and Chelsea has managed to work around a situation with my tenants by securing 6 months in rent in advance, which is a great effort.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Taylors, and in particular Rachel and Chelsea who are both friendly, responsive and have a can-do attitude.

TrustpilotPoor Filtering Set by Letting Agents
I am unhappy as letting agents are allowed to put up shared accommodation as flats. This makes the filer function pointless. I have clicked to ‘Don’t Show’ Shared Accommodation, but the same letting agents are constantly flouting this by deliberately not advertising their lets correctly. -3 for that reason. Otherwise I would mark it a 5 star.

So that we can raise this with our data quality team, please can you send us an email to talk-to-us@rightmove.co.uk with details of the search you're completing and the properties that are being listed incorrectly.

TrustpilotAlert setting..........Not great
The site is great for searching for properties, however, I tried to set an alert for rental properties but was unable to do so because I had selected "don't show student accommodation" Given that I am not interested in student accommodation and do not want alerts every 5 minutes about them, I decided not to bother with Rightmove and created alerts on other platforms. Surely, in today's era of technology, someone should be able to set an alert on Rightmove selecting only the properties they want to see.

Spoke with Rhea regarding rental insurance on a property I am due to move into. She arranged a call back for when I was available. Explained in full all info regarding policies as I have never taken out one before. She was super friendly and knowledgeable, and was even considerate of how long she was keeping me on the phone. She even wished me well with my move! Absolutely amazing and friendly service - she deserves a raise!!!

TrustpilotWhat an amazing website, but ...
Most of the ads are too deceptive. There's an ongoing trend of "brighten up" or distort the perspective of properties that leads to huge waste of time in visits.A simple way to make this problem less impactful to customers would be to require the entry of property area (sqf/sqm) , and allow the user to filter for it or at least prioritize properties that have this information. Same goes for Leasehold vs Share of Freehold / Freehold. Allowing people to filter for or prioritize something, effectively promotes quality and choice.I'm updating my review because the website now offers you a basic form of feedback if you believe the description is inaccurate, but I still believe that this feedback should be more transparent to other users and allow a public discourse on properties and estate firms.This is the best website out there still, but for the sake of it I believe my rating should reflect its potential, not your relative comparison with other similar sites.You have the power to improve the property market and to promote good properties above bad properties. It strikes me how "flattened" prices are given the huge "quality" difference between properties and I think Rightmove can do something about it and it should do something about it.

Hi Ben,Thank you for your review. We make thousands of big and small changes to Rightmove every year so that it stays quick and easy to use to find your next home. We know how important the property listing pages are and we took extra care when redesigning them, and they went through lots of testing with home-hunters. We’ve given them a fresh new look, and the pages are faster to load. Our aim for the new look page is to give home-hunters a better view of a property’s features all on one page. We’ve been switching on the page to people using the site gradually so that we can make changes as we go based on people’s feedback, as we know we don’t get it right first time. I have passed your feedback on to our specialist Development Team to take into consideration.Many Thanks, Rightmove.

TrustpilotRight now residential
You need to verify the companies who advertise on your site. Right now residential appears to be a fraud. They are taking people's withholding deposit. They rushed me into paying a withholding deposit, after they requested for unnecessary documents which I was reluctant to give but later presented, they stopped responding to my messages and emails.They have put the property at collier Row back to your site for the 3rd time, using it to deceive and take people's money. Once they see a victim like me they rush them to pay deposit and take down the property after taking their money from them they put the property back on your site as newly added Please stop them before they do it for another person

During what is undoubtedly a very stressful experience for everyone involved it is nice to be treated like a human being for once, Danni Ord wasn't just trying to push an insurance sale on to me but acted like a friend who listened to my problems and allowed me to vent some frustrations about the whole ordeal before securing herself an insurance sales commission.

Here at Rightmove, we are the advertising website for Estate and Letting Agents and as a result we don't have any direct involvement with the selling or renting process of properties as we aren't an Estate Agent ourselves.If you are not happy with how an estate agent has dealt with your enquiry, in the first instance, I would recommend raising a complaint to your estate agent so that they’re aware of this and have the opportunity to look into this for you.If you would like to discuss this further, please contact us on 01908 712 300.Many thanks,Rightmove

TrustpilotThe worst referencing experience to date
In December, I had a "pleasure" of dealing with RightMove referencing agents which was an outsourced job by Abatoria letting agency.To give some context, I've been contacted to provide with three payslips, proof of money hitting the account (bank statement) which I did.I also provided my initial employment contract (dating to 2016) and all addendums to it as I've been promoted several times to this date.I have successfully provided my manager's verbal reference of employment and offered the HR reference should it be needed.RightMove reference agents didn't accept the documentation since they didn't like that in the initial contract had an OTE amount approximately 4 times smaller than I've put in my application, even though I did provide a signed addendum by both my HR colleagues and the SVP of sales of the company.It was clearly stated that the salary is the only factor which did change with all the rest remaining the same in the addendum, however it didn't bother RightMove reps.My HR colleagues have advised that they'd happily confirm the terms in written, however, again, this was refused as the company needed a full contract stating all changes there. The fact that my salary amount combined in three payslips (backing the promotion) showed nearly 20% higher amount than my OTE from 2016, again, didn't bother RightMove agents.They've essentially called a few times per day for weeks and tried forcing me to admit that I refused to provide an appropriate contract and that my OTE salary statement is false. This was the worst experience I've ever had dealing with the agency, to the point that Abatoria agents had to get involved in a fight for this too and it was utterly unpleasant.I ended up calling Abatoria to explain that this was totally out of hand and offered to provide the same documentation I've provided to RightMove to Abatoria. Of course this was more than sufficient to them and we ended up striking a deal with both sides being happy.All in all, I will be spreading the word about this experience to as many people as possible to avoid RightMove at all costs as this experience couldn't have been any worse, causing immense stress and having me on a verge of withdrawing from the application just by the fact how awful the agents of RightMove conducted themselves. The fact that we had to pay for this checks is beyond me, I feel like I should have been paid instead for this horrendous situation which I will never put myself again with RightMove.

Hi Rostislav, thanks for reaching out. We’re sorry to hear of the issues you’ve experienced and can fully appreciate the frustration and stress they have caused.Having investigated your case, it’s evident that our service has let you down and for that we apologise. Assessing the credibility of references is something that we take great care in for the protection of estate agents and their landlords, however in this case, it is clear that the checks were too process based and did not take into account your individual circumstances. We pride ourselves in striking a balance of diligence while keeping people at the forefront and we failed to do so in your case. We’re sincerely grateful for you taking the time to provide us with this feedback so that we can deliver relevant training, ensure the mistakes do not happen again and improve our service.Many thanks,Rightmove
