While our application for the property was being processed we had numerous issues regarding communication... often promised to return our calls although these were always broken, the only explanation I received was that our agent was unavailable and I was being referred to another of their agents, Becky. When I finally spoke to her the application was pushed through and eventually moved in 4 weeks after the initial application which in my experience is a huge delay, especially as I was in hospital with my newborn and had an 18 month old at home, when confronted on why it was taking so long they had no answer for me, they could "only apologise for the inconvenience at this stressful time" - Not good enough by my standards! After moving in there have been several problems... Ants were getting into the conservatory and kitchen as it has not been properly sealed... When I asked for this to b solved nothing was done after calling twice per week for 4 weeks so I had to correct the problem myself as I could not let this carry on with my two children for hygiene reasons. Secondly the light and fan in the conservatory has never worked... 6 months of asking and still nothing done, reason being "No electrician is free to do it in the area in the coming months" - Absolute rubbish!!! I laughed at their response and called my own electrician, kept the receipt and took it off my rent payment. This they didn't like at all but they had no choice but to accept after I said Id happily appear in court and explain why I hadn't paid the full amount and I have all the evidence I need to back me up. Now as we are moving out this weekend a huge crack has appeared in my sons bedroom ceiling and is going through to the bathroom.... Dud of a House!!! Thirdly dodgy electrics in the conservatory and kitchen, plug in something too powerful and it blows the electrics.... I have been informed by an electrician this is because the socket has been spurred from another.... COMPLETELY ILLEGAL AND A FIRE HAZARD.... but these agents don't seem to care. Bottom line.. I think these agents should be reported and no one should ever use them if possible.
Just done their job!!!

Incompetent beyond belief! Simpsons were in the process of evicting a tenant on a property they manage for me and served the first section 21 notice. Once I received this I forwarded to my solicitor to check who confirmed that it was worded correctly and was missing information. I immediately told... Read Full Review

I'm not a big player in the rental market – I have several properties but I'm gradually taking them away from Simpsons; they charge a high price for a very low service. Their lettings staff is inadequately trained and out of their depth when confronted with anything beyond the simple. When... Read Full Review
Provide an honest and comprehensive service instead of the shortcuts and neglect offered.
The fees would be OK if the actual service was up to the mark. Little failings that staff didn\'t learn from built up to a level of discontent that just became overwhelming.

Used this company for the sale and purchase and I have come to believe they are completely incompletant. The sales particulars for our home were sent to us with another customers attached. When we did sell they put the sold board up 6 doors away. The house we are buying has tenant in it and... 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.
