Shocking. God knows how they have won awards! Surprised they ever sell any property. Wanted to view a property and cash buyers. Staff were rude, unprofessional and wanted proof of funds! If it was a property of high value I could understand however the way ...

The slowness and lack of communication lets these agents down. You are the customer and should be regularly updated and feel valued at every stage. Can be pleasant but be aware and alert to any tactics. I would take your business and hard earned money ...

Farrell Heyworth has to be the worst Estate Agent I have ever dealt with. If you want to sell you property I would urge you to look at other agents. If you want to buy a property from them you will have to chase and ...

You do realise we are in the middle of a pandemic?! Keeping distance to have a conversation is the law and for your own safety! As for the other comments, have some patience, most businesses have 9 weeks worth of work to catch up on and still not allowed to have all their staff working- again due to the safety measures brought by the pandemic. It’s a shame your house purchase is having to wait a little longer than expected but more important that you’re still alive surely? ...

Incredibly incompetent and unhelpful. Had to raise two complaints with the Blackpool Council (and there should have been more), as they wouldn't enforce any repairs otherwise. We are leaving the house with some of the repairs still uncompleted one year and half later....

I wish I had written my review earlier so you could have seen it! Same thing happened to us - before we agreed to move in to the property we were promised that everything would get sorted. Needless to say, nothing did. And here we are 2 complaints to the Council later and they are still as unprofessional and dishonest as ever! Get the f*** out of that house as soon as you can, mate, they won't change! ...
