I have recently found my first home through Daniel at Dixons. He was so helpful right from the beginning and showed us multiple properties and really made me feel like he was alway thinking of me first. He worked quickly and efficiently and displayed fantastic customer service. I would highly recommend! Thank you for finding me my perfect house for my family!
Many thanks for your marvellous 5* review and recommendation. Best wishes, Lucy, Customer Relations.

Absolutely appalling service. Viewed 2 houses with them. put an offer in on the first house, which they said the vendor had accepted. I even had my decision in principle, ID and all of the other relevant paper work. which i forwarded to Dixons. However, soon after they advised that another buyer had put a higher offer in than mine, despite assurances that if I provided all of the relevant paperwork such as my decision in principle and the vendor accepted my offer (which they did) that a memorandum of sale would be issued within 24 hours and soon after the property would be taken off the market and no further viewings conducted and a sold board placed outside. However, this was clearly lies as the same house which I put an offer in for, still has a for sale board outside 2 months later. Thinking maybe that there was issues with the vendor, I proceeded to view another property with dixons and to put an offer in on that property for the exact asking price as advertised. However, I never heard anything back after putting my offer in and no further communication was made despite me chasing dixons several times. I have now used other agents such as connells who deliver a much higher level of service than this bunch of cut throat con artists. Avoid purchasing a property through Dixons, they actively encourage gazumping and lie through their teeth.

The consultant Monika was very helpful and professional in helping me secure the purchase of my property which I love. She chased up solicitors and vendors agents, keeping me informed of what was happening.
Hi Sonia, Congratulations on the purchase of your property, it is great reading your kind words. I will share this review with Monika and the rest of the team. Best wishes, Sarah

Appalling service . Wanted to view a house and on the first contact they were more interested in trying to sell me a mortgage deal as well as trying to get me to view other properties instead of the one I had asked to view. Then a few minutes later they called me back and basically accused me of lying stating they could not find any details of my sold property. When I questioned them the person basically said I was lying about the fact I had sold my property. I still had not heard about a viewing on the property. Its understandable that if you purchase a property funds need to be ascertained but to call a prospective buyer a liar and then try to dig details about them unsuccessfully just to view a property is unprofessional and out of order. Due to this experience I do not even think I would want to view nay of their properties even if I was interested in them . As a prospective buyer I do not appreciate being made to feel like a criminal
Hi Deannah, I am sorry to read that you have felt this way. If you would like to discuss further your feedback and experience, we would be grateful if you contacted our Customer Relations Team via review@countrywide.co.uk. so that we can look into this for you. Kind regards, Scott

Monika H is an excellent financial advisor. Her ability to explain the process was top notch,and she simplified the steps for me. She was proactive in making sure the sellers, conveyancers and mortgage providers were all kept up to date and pushed when they needed to be. Considering the COVID lockdown occurred days after my offer was accepted, she did an amazing job to get to the point of actually buying!PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism
Thank you for your amazing 5* review and kind words of our dedicated team. Kind regards, Lucy, Customer Relations.

FIVE stars for the most APPALLING service ever, Have to leave this review as no way to make a complaint and believe me I have tried. You can never get through on the phone, always an answer machine, normally 24 hours before a call back. I sold through Dixon's, to a buyer having a mortgage through them. However when trying to make offers on properties, Dixon's either didn't answer phones and agents had to leave messages, when they did get through, the tell me that one of the advisors would tell them I was sold but couldn't give them details of the chain as it wasn't his job. They would then have to wait for call back from another advisor, who I am told by several agents, was unable to confirm my buyers own selling position, or his agent etc etc. I eventually had to ask my solicitor to send a memorandum of sale to the sellers agent....Result, on the last attempt to purchase a house, after 4 days of trying to get info the seller of the property I was interested in took an offer from someone who had had position confirmed. When I tried to complain, I was obviously angry but assertive, Dixon's manager obviously could not handle an assertive woman and told me "I do not have to sit and listen to you screaming" WOW how rude and its a typical male comment to a woman, I am a client not his 'woman'. Luckily my phone was on loud speaker and my neighbour heard the whole thing, and I definateley was not screaming, the Manager just kept overtalking me. Unable to confirm my buyers position I withdrew. But there is one other thing, I agreed a fixed fee including VAT of £2500, as that was a figure I had been quoted with a competitor, I NEVER signed an agreement with Dixon's though and during a call AFTER I had sold they told me it was £2500 + VAT £3k... I am appalled there is no complaints procedure or numbers, no area manager ....DISGRACEFUL. I am now doubting if the buyer for my house HAD in fact actually sold his.

Fantastic 5 star review and recommendation for the Kings Heath branch of Dixons estate agents. I will make sure i share this review with Monika. Kind regards, Sarah.
5/5
Bucking the trend in estate agency! I'd tried an onliner and then a conventional high street agent but no success. Dixons' fees were a little steeper but the customer service was superb. Adam Farrow in particular found a choice of buyers and negotiated a great offer. The transaction was then made as smooth as it could be all the way to exchange, and they even helped me find my next property. Well done guys!
Thank you Timothy for taking the time to leave us with your fantastic 5* review of our dedicated Dixons team. It is great to see that you received superb customer service, that your transaction was made as smooth as possible all the way to exchange. Best wishes Emma

Brilliant service! Monika, the Consultant, guided us step by step through the whole remortgage process. She was very patient, despite hundreds of questions from us, and always with a very positive attitude. She managed to sort out for us a discounted soliciors’ fee so after our new bank refunded us the whole original amount, we had extra £150 in our pocket. We would highly recommend her service!
Hi Graznya Thank you for your 5* review. It's great to hear that everything went so well for you with your re-mortgage. Excellent news that Monika managed to save you another £150 as well! Kind regards, Chris

Awful service if you are a buyer...made an offer on a house for the full asking price and they didn't even have the courtesy to call me back to tell me I had been outbid...I found out that the house had been sold on the Rightmove website. Only interested in making as much money for their fees as possible, no customer service at all.
Dear Miss Meddings, we apologise that you did not hear back from Dixons in relation to the offer you made on 20 The Woodley’s, I am currently looking into why this has happened, the member of staff that dealt with your offer was new and had just started with us, whilst we train our staff to follow a strict offer to sales process sometimes it can go wrong, the matter has been picked up. As a customer we value your opinion and want to provide the best customer experience for both buyers and sellers. At Dixons we work on a fixed fee for our customers whilst we aim to get the best price for our sellers we operate a fair service to ensure that it comes from the best possible buyer. If you would like to discuss this further please do not hesitate to contact the branch. Kind Regards, Branch Manager

Alex the mortgage and protection consultant has been incredibly helpful throughout the process. He has been willing to answer all my questions and has been a great guide from the beginning, which has been particularly useful as a first time buyer. Alex has made the whole process a lot simpler and smoother than I was expecting it to be.
Thank you for the great review! It is great to read you benefited from the passionate and personal service provided by Alex at Dixons in Kings Heath branch. I will make sure i share this review with Alex and everyone involved at the branch. Best wishes in settling into your new home.
