After renting a property from them for 10 years and keeping it in impeccable condition, I was issued a Section 21, in October 2023. This came 2 weeks after I complained about an issue with ongoing mould & damp. The ... Read Full Review

Farrell Heyworth have to be amongst the worst letting agents in the North-West. I have been forced to give them 1 star as it is impossible to leave them ‘zero’. They have habitually made mistakes in the management of my property, costing me hundreds of pounds over the 9 years... Read Full Review

Searching for properties is stressful enough without these adding to your stress!! Absolutely... Read Full Review

Initial viewing of the house was quick and helpful. However, was meant to move in earlier this week and was then told further documents needed to be sent over. Why was this done on the day we were supposed to move in? Move in date was pushed forward two days and then got told we would have to wait... Read Full Review

I have never experienced such poor customer service with an estate agent. I showed interest in several rental properties and asked if I could view them. Every time I sent an enquiry, I would receive a phone call from a member of staff, who told me that they would get in touch as soon as possible... Read Full Review

Absolutely awful service. Left me on a mattress on the floor for two months in a property advertised as fully furnished. They sent a dodgy contractor round to put an unsafe boiler back on, second opinion said it was not safe to use. They also tried to charge me illegal fees. And gave a bad... Read Full Review

Not to be trusted, unreliable, never answered emails or calls, and when they did they sometimes lied or put me on hold then to never pick up again. We paid the deposit on a rental property and waited weeks for the 'paper work' to be done before we could move in. Days before we were... Read Full Review

Chose FH as believed they would go the extra mile in providing a service. I could not have been more wrong. We never know who we are dealing with, no one returns calls and everyone who we have had to deal with in letting our property, are scathing about them. Not sure what the competition is like...
