They were extremely rude and added a surprise charge of £800 for selling a house. Possibly the worst property agents I have ever met.

Their policy and attitude make it extremely difficult to view a property without divulging personal finance details in advance. This leaves viewer open to a high risk of fraud/identity theft! Generally poor telephone response, unreasonable and unhelpful staff and failure to even send virtual tour when agreed. SELLERS BE AWARE. I had a genuine interest in an affordable property which could have been ideal. We will not be viewing.NegativeResponsiveness, Professionalism

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I'm sorry to hear you were somewhat disappointed in the experience. Customer service is extremely important to us and we always strive to operate with the safety of our customers at heart. I think it's valuable to outline what our procedures with regard to viewings are, and why we are continuing with these procedures when many agents seem to have returned to pre-Covid operating practices. Our process is as follows: All initial enquiries to view are provided with a virtual video tour which is received within minutes of the request. The virtual viewing is followed up and feedback obtained, this is extremely valuable to the owner of the property. If somebody wishes to then book a physical viewing we will ascertain if they are ready to proceed. A Mortgage agreement or financial qualification is then required to put the buyer in the best possible position to offer, along with acting solicitor details. The viewing can then be arranged. Unfortunately, we still receive many requests to view properties from individuals who have no intention of buying said property. To keep our staff and customers safe we have chosen to continue with a process that will allow us to limit the amount of people that physically view to just genuine buyers. If the person viewing the property wishes to make an offer we would require a proof of funds at this stage in any event. Kind regards, Jeremy Collins – Director

My mother phoned to book a house viewing for a house to let a few hours after it went on Rightmove. She wanted to go that day but was told the only date available was yesterday so she took it. She received messages confirming the booking …

I enquired about a property marketed them. After numerous times of asking for the information I've never been contacted. If I was selling a property I'd use a more professional estate agent. …

This company is a joke, don’t return calls and hardly answer the phone. No wonder they’ve closed the office. Plenty of better agents out there

Awful Estate Agents. Viewed a property with them, the mortgage advisor got lost with all our information, proceeded to request the same information over & over. He then got flustered with it, and decided to pass all the information over to another mortgage broker based at another branch (who has been helpful) Put an offer in of £65,000 on one of their repossessions, never heard back. Then saw that an offer was put on the same property online for '£63,000' (lower then ours) We lost another sale of a house, because it took them that long to pull their finger out, we lost a sale on a second house with another company. We since emailed advising, we hadn't heard back regarding our offer - No response. It then took Simon, to enquire internally to get a response from them!!! We then rang today, to view another property we had noticed on the same Street as one we just viewed. We saw a lady from Farrell Heyworth, asked politely asked if she was the agent doing viewings on the property (a property we would have probably gone a head and put an offer in on) got a rude response of 'No' - she was completely unprofessional, rude and unhelpful - believe her name was Bev or something a long those lines. I understand for security reasons they may possibly need to be booked in via the office but a little more of a helpful response would have been appreciated. Rang the office while she was still inside the property, to ask if they had any slots available as we'd come from out the area. Someone called Sam, who was quite helpful actually, advised someone from their office was actually there at the moment - and If i advised her that i'd spoken to Sam she should be happy to show me round quite quickly. Shouting 'Excuse me' as she was coming out of the property - she completely ignored us. I am sorry but she 100% heard us and decided to be blatantly ignorant. I am now finding myself purposely avoiding properties advertised by this Agent. If i was the owner of one of these houses and found this to be how interested viewers were being treated, i'd be taking my property of them straight away. The one star is for Sam being helpful on the phone, and Simon at a completely different branch taking over the mortgage case and being on the ball with it. (Thanks Sam & Simon) Otherwise 0 Stars would have been sufficient.

Dear Hannah, Thank you for your feedback. I am delighted that you found Sam and Simon to have been very helpful but I agree that your poor experience with one of our members of staff was unacceptable. As you say, it is right and safe for all concerned that bookings for a viewing are done through the office but we could have been more accommodating once you had contacted us. We should have called our member of staff onsite once you had spoken to the office rather than expect you to introduce yourself. I have organised retraining to prevent this from happening again. Kind Regards, Chris Heyworth - Director

I have attempted to contact them regarding a property for two days in a row and have been sitting with a ringing tone for more than an hour on both occasions. Terrible service, I would've preferred a call back system where I don't have to sit on the phone for God knows how long
