I spoke a couple times called Catherine at the York branch she is so unprofessional shouting at me over the phone for asking a simple question. Disgusting behaviour don’t even know how she still works there if she talks to people like that over the phone. I will never use this company again.

GoogleA big thanks to the whole team and especially Imogen for walking us through the whole process of moving into our first non student property. Sam at the front desk was fantastic as well as after not being taken seriously by almost every other estate agents in York he actually tried to find us somewhere to live unlike pretty much everywhere else. A fantastic customer service and great team all round.

Googlenot a single good experience with these guys, very pro landlord and unresponsive with repairs/emergency situations, toilet leaked once and took them a week to sort it out, deposits handled by a different company but horrible checkout experience and deductions for absolute weird reasons, landlord was awful, not responsive, it would have been common courtesy to discuss a potential end to the contract, landlord sent no fault eviction without any warning, yes it's not illegal but it's just poor practice, agreed to leave and then just wanted to speak to landlord to ask why they blocked my number, thank god the renters rights bill is being passed to stop these people from toying with lives, you'll never see any known contacts of mine coming here and certainly not myself,

GoogleThe bridgfords team were extremely helpful in getting me settled into my new flat, professional and friendly and made moving in a breeze. Evan, a lettings agent who I went through most of the process with (along with some other members of the team who were very helpful), made the process far easier than I thought it was going to be. All my queries were answered quickly by Evan and covered all basis on what I needed to know.
Thanks to the bridgfords team and thanks Evan!

TrustpilotVery poor service
Really poor service. Dealt with Louis from their Winchester Branch who was pleasant (although outwardly commented negatively about others who had viewed the property that day, which I didn't find particularly professional) on the viewing on Friday 13th October. Had some immediate questions which were emailed across within hours of the viewing to which 3 weeks later there hasn't been a response.Put an offer in on the property the following Monday (16th) and had an update on the Wednesday saying probably wouldn't have an update until the end of the week.Didn't receive any further updates (despite chasing) until 8 days later to say there still wasn't a decision but no explanation as to why and that the owners wanted to meet us the following Friday (3rd November - today).Sent a response within 3 hours saying we'd be happy to meet them and also asking some really basic questions. As of today I have had no communication following my email from over a week ago, nor have I received any updates regarding the property or my application.Extremely disappointed and wouldn't recommend to others...

GoogleIf you want to save your nerves, NEVER RENT A PROPERTY FROM THIS AGENCY. After letting, you will deal with Countrywide (read reviews for this company). It is the most horrible agency in the world! You will wait for repairs for months. You will get a bad reference for your next reference check even you never missed payment! You won't get back about your deposit after leaving the property! You will need to raise a dispute with mydeposit or even go to a court! I rented from November 2022 to June 2025.

GoogleI have a couple of properties in York and have used a selection of letting agents. I have continued to use Bridgfords since I first engaged them a number of years ago - solely because they have performed head and shoulders above any previous agent I have used. They continue to give an excellent service and my most recent let was conducted by Alfie whose attention to detail and level of service was outstanding. I would have no hestitation in using them again or recommend them to others.

Incredibly frustrated with this company. They are discriminatory and homophobic. We found our perfect rental property and proceeded to view and submit our application. After days of chasing. Kam finally called me back. She said the asset manager rejected our application as he felt the property was too small for our family.

GoogleAbsolutely dreadful communication, the sale took forever when it should have been the most straightforward sale ever. The staff just blamed everyone that they could, no one took responsibility for any delays. Up to you but I would never ever use Bridgfords in York again. They are involved with countrywide Lettings agents who are, in my experience, the most rude business I’ve ever dealt with.
It’s not difficult to be polite, you’ll find you get repeat customers if you are, sadly you are the OPPOSITE of polite.

GoogleFinding a place on your own is quite stressful especially I am not a resident here in the UK but with the help of Jack, he did all the efforts to email and answer all my queries! He went above and beyond to assist me from beginning of my viewing of the flat and to the point where I need to complete all requirements before moving in. Answers were detailed enough that I don't need to wait for a day just to get it all sorted out. He was very polite even when I ring fives times a day and would answer my queries without hesitation. Everyone I spoke with in Bridgford York are all very kind, patient and professional. I would totally recommend Jack Newton as your agent as he is well-organized and absolutely helpful! I can't thank him enough for all the efforts. Thank you so much Jack and to the rest of Bridgford York.

This was my first experience renting through an agency and my queries and questions were answered in a clear and personable manner. Emily’s temperament was professional, transparent and personal - which was key to my progression with the application.

TrustpilotAwful service
Awful service! I went to view a house with my 17 year old son and we really liked it. We dealt with Nyah from the Shrewsbury office and I got the impression that she immediately discriminated against us. She was giving us false figures to try and put us off saying the deposit was higher than it worked out at, also that the council tax was 2 grand higher than it actually is! It was as if she did not believe we could afford such a house. Then told me that as we are both self employed we would have to prove income for 3 years. As I knew this was not correct, my husband phoned a few days later and she told him self employed was fine and we’d need to provide bank statements for 1 year for referencing and would he like to apply for the house. He asked why she had told me completely different information and she got completely defensive and then said we could not apply. Good luck to the landlords with her being in charge of managing their property.

Sam Jarvis was brilliant in the acquisition of the rental for our 2 bed property in Fulham. We wouldn't be living where we are now if he wasn't as quick and efficient with his email replies, always giving us in depth and great answers for any questions we had regarding the property. Naturally, renting somewhere for the first time in London was a tough experience, but having an agent like Sam who was extremely helpful and understanding with his replies made the process so much easier. Couldn't recommend more :)
