Average service. Could do better.

Seymour’s provided a polite but average service. The property photos could have been improved and the brochure needed tweaking before publishing online. It felt very rushed with a lack of attention to detail.
Viewings were limited in number and feedback was either non-existent or very difficult to obtain despite my follow up emails. The price which was agreed turned out to be on the low side compared to a neighbouring property. Also, the property was empty and, on one occasion, a top floor window was left open which I only discovered when I was checking the property the following day. Not good in terms of security.
This lack of care and professionalism was mirrored by Seymour’s staff using the property’s bathroom and not flushing the toilet after them!
On the plus side it was helpful to have a dedicated person to contact when the sale had been agreed and we were exchanging contracts and completing the sale.
I happened to be selling another property in a different part of the country at the same time and, by contrast, the local estate agent was very efficient and far more proactive, resulting in more viewings with regular, honest and constructive feedback delivered the following day.
With their large market share in the local area, it seems like Seymour’s are somewhat complacent and lack a personalised approach to selling properties. More attention to detail and better feedback are needed in my view.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're genuinely sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations, particularly in relation to communication, attention to detail, and the overall presentation of your property. This is certainly not the level of service we aim to provide, and your comments have been shared with the relevant teams so that we can learn from them and make improvements. We do appreciate your acknowledgement of the support during the later stages of the sale, and regret that the overall experience wasn’t more satisfactory.

We rented a property through Seymours

We rented a property through Seymours. Seymours’ claim they “only partner with landlords who share our values in providing you with the best possible place to live”. Not for us they didn’t, they confirmed the start of the tenancy for a property with no washing machine, no fridge, no kitchen living room lights, not properly cleaned amongst other problems. They claim partner involvement, but when we asked for their assistance, the only partner involvement was to be told of their holiday dates ! Seymour’s take their money and run.

Dear Mr Wells

Thank you for your review.

We are obviously disappointed that you are experiencing difficulties with your rental property. Whilst we have endeavoured to assist your Landlord in dealing with the issues we are only retained on a Tenant Find basis and are therefore not able to act with regard to any repairs. We have not acted for this client previously and therefore have no experience with of there being any problems. We are happy to reapproach your Landlord if you feel this may be of any assistance however he did advise us he was dealing with you directly.

I appreciate you bring your concerns to our attention and I would be grateful to have a conversation once the tenancy comes to an end to enable us to decide if we should continue to act for this client on this basis.

Once again , please accept my apologies for that you felt unsupported by Seymours during this process, unfortunately our hands are ultimately tied given the terms of our agreement with your Landlord. If you do wish to discuss the matter further please feel free to contact me directly on
lisa@seymours-woking.co.uk.

Avoid Seymour’s Woking

Seymours Woking has been nothing but abysmal. When moving in, they did not provide me with a key to the patio door, expecting me to live in the flat with an external door unlocked until they had the key available. I also entered with no water and there was no urgency for either matter. I called the office 16 times in total that day due to having to chase both these matters. I have also had a total of 4 separate occasions of no water in my flat within 3 weeks of living here. One occasion I was lied to by the manager, who told me she can’t help me as there were works going on in the area. I called Affinity water to find out there were no works going on and no one was affected. The agents also authorised a contractor to come into my flat to carry out works that I wasn’t aware needed doing. I didn’t get a notification of this nor did the contractor knock on the door. Seymours allowed the contractor to use his key to walk directly into my flat. The flat was also structured incorrectly with no wiring to host wifi. Two engineers have attended site saying it is not possible due to the faulty wiring. Seymours refused to engage the landlord or an electrician as they said wifi is not contractual so they cannot do anything. There is also a contractual clause for them to provide blinds, which they are still refusing to do due to the cost despite this being a contractual term which I am now discussing with the ombudsman. Their service is awful. Whenever I attempt to call the office, the person I need is coincidentally always on another call and I am told she will call me back. Even in examples of urgency such as no water, I never get a call back.

Dear Michael,

Thank you for your review.

We are obviously disappointed that you are experiencing difficulties with your rental property. As the property is a new build apartment, there can often be teething problems and snagging required. We have been liaising with both you and the Landlord to resolve all the concerns as a matter of importance.

We do appreciate you bringing your concerns to our attention and apologies you felt the need to have to raise these.

Thank you for also contacting us directly regarding the property. We will continue to work with you to resolve any remaining points outstanding at the property.

Seymours Camberley - Dishonest, No Integrity. Just Awful

Our experience with Seymours Camberley was horrific. They falsely claimed a contractor had said a pipe leak was our fault, trying to pass on an £1,800 bill. When we contacted the contractor directly, they confirmed the leak was actually due to poor workmanship in the bathroom from before we moved in. Seymours also supported a bullying landlord, even encouraging clauses in the tenancy that weren’t legally enforceable — like asking for 4 months’ notice and holding over 3 months’ worth of deposits. Finally, they attempted to keep part of our deposit with a completely fabricated quote. Thankfully, the Tenancy Deposit Adjudicator saw through it and returned the full deposit in under 48 hours. This branch is everything people fear in estate agents. Do yourself a favour and avoid.

Thanks for the review Alistair. We set a high standard for ourselves, so we are disappointed to hear that your experience with us was not a positive one. we would welcome to opportunity to speak to you regarding the comments you have made but as you are aware by English law all rental deposits are held with a tenancy deposit scheme and until all evidence has been reviewed.

The Seymours Team!

The team at Seymours Woking (and they are a team), all helped guide me through the process of purchasing my property with no fuss.
Always willing to help, and made the process simple......and always done with a friendly nature.

I have been a Seymours customer for just over two years, both on the buyer/seller side and as a landlord. They know their businesses well and service has been consistently professional and considerate.

The agents have been very communicative…

The agents have been very communicative along the whole process, and not only in the initial stage. Until the very end I felt that they were still interested in the good outcome of my case, even when it was clear that I was going with the property they were advertising. This is not a totally trivial fact (unfortunately) and I have been in other circumstances with other agencies where the agent almost instantly stopped to care as soon as I gave the first sign of acceptance. So, for this, I want to say thank you so very much Seymours for sticking with me all the way, I am very grateful.

A bungalow - just what we wanted

We recently had the fortune of being shown around a beautiful bungalow by Ben and lucky enough to have our offer accepted. Ben did all the work in getting us to this stage so now we’re just going through the process and hoping for a very smooth sale / purchase. Thank you Ben

Good purchasing experience - Seymours Woking

The team were prompt in their responses and had a good initial experience with Chris. Chris listened to our requirements and shared information about a property yet to hit the market, which we subsequently viewed and made an offer on. Having someone to take this initiative was key and we were very pleased with the result.
