I was under the impression that agents were desperate to sell properties to earn some commission. Recently I contacted Connels to view a property. After 3 phone calls and having been advised that they were required to give the vendor 24 hours notice of a viewing, I confirmed our appointment. We turned up at the property 15 minutes early and waited for 20 minutes. No sign of the Connells agent so we called them. They were surprised to hear from us and said they had no appointment in the diary and that they were unable to come out and meet us as there was only one person in office. It also happened to be 17.50, ten minutes before the office closed. That is the last time I will be dealing with them and I feel sorry for the vendor. If the vendor changes agents then we might just ararnge a viewing. Connels in Westbury on Trym will not get the benefit of our business.

I'm afraid the agent are dependant on their legal team with a mission to get the most out of their clients. We marketed a property with them and were so unhappy with their communication. We left them to another excellent agent. we sold the property with the new agency. The buyer did make an offer... Read Full Review
Respect their client and accept their failure in selling the property rather than chasing for money whilst they can to get anything from their client. Awful experience.

I dealt with Connells, Filton (Bristol) when looking for my first house. At first Simon was very friendly and helpful. But as soon as we mentioned our deposit amount, his eyes lit up and he started trying to hype up the property, and say amounts offers have already been offered (which they're not... Read Full Review
Maybe I\'d feel better about it if they called up and profusely apologised for their lack of communication and had a very good excuse. Help us get a good deal on a house without being all about their own wages!!

I went to them believing that they can sell my property, but unfortunately they did not put any effort. When we talked for the first time, I explained ti them that the communication is really important for me, and James promised, that they will call me every week. They seemed really nice. On the...

Connells were very unhelpful and rude to myself and two housemates this November - December when trying to rent a property. I work in customer service myself and would be fired for half the things Connells did to us. Here are some of the problems we had with them: We were refused a request to... Read Full Review

We chose full management at 10% plus VAT. What did they do? Lied about electric test report then told me I was mistaken about what they had told me. Lied about status of gas report which resulted in last minute checks being required before tenant moved in. Connells are excellent at spending your... Read Full Review
They need to employ experienced people rather than what appears to be the cheapest available.

My partner and I viewed a property with a view to letting, and fell in love with the house. The initial deposit was extremely steep, but we wanted it too much to let go. However, after telling 'Ellie' that we would be getting a loan to pay off the deposit, we were rang constantly to push us into... Read Full Review

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.
