Would have left no stars if allowed. Newport isle of wight office suggested I would not be allowed to view their properties unless we used their mortgage advisors etc. So I will not now be able to see any of their properties even though this practise is not legal. Its also not good for sellers as... Read Full Review

AVOID AT ALL COSTS! They don't reply to emails, they don't reply to calls and they didn't even turn up to the last viewing! Our original agent was replaced with the branch manager and he was just as useless. Never... Read Full Review

Dreadful company, will never use them again, I don't care how good the property is. Very unhelpful staff, if you get Penny on the phone you're wasting your time, does not care. Took 4 weeks to get out deposit back, after constant chasing and getting no where. Avoid at all... Read Full Review

After both buying and selling with WB&P in the past we approached them for a property we wished to sell.

Pushy pushy pushy! . I have not dealt with a worst estate agent in my life. Don't trust them. They won't help you to purchase a property unless you use their in house mortgage broker. If you are selling a property make sure they have given you the correct information regarding an... Read Full Review

Tried to rent a property through this agent, eventually traced and contacted the landlord direct when it became clear that agent was not passing communications clearly in either direction. Given that the property had been empty for a couple of months and I was good to go with a flexible timescale... Read Full Review
Preposterous, but sadly still not uncommon in the market. Especially given that they are charging the landlord for effectively the same service.

We arranged several viewings days in advance before being told that one was no longer available and they were only able to inform us on the day because of the 'adverse weather' , although there have been no reports of telephone lines being disrupted! Secondly, a further viewing was postponed as... Read Full Review
Being upfront and honest, this is a poor start for future potential customers leaving little faith. Room for improvement in customer service and experience.

I was interested in letting a 5 bedroom barn via Watson Bull and Porter, I offered the full asking price and I was told by Chris that my application would not be considered on the basis that we had 4 children, I advised him this was discrimination and I would be speaking to the County Press, he...

The agent could have listened to our individual case and could have acted more professional, as opposed to being rude to me and putting down the telephone.

6 Sept 2012I was interested to read this very inaccurate review by Mr Street. Any landlord has the right to decide who lives in his property and on this occassion Mr Streets application was not accepted. When ...
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.
