Gone down the toilet!

Used to be great when they were based on Harborne High street in Birmingham - friendly and pleasant staff who were really helpful. Since closing this office and moving to Quinton the service has become complete rubbish. I would advise against renting from or giving your property to let through this company.

Dixons - Bearwood

The service provided by Dixons estate agents in Bearwood was second-to-none. Really happy to have found Aaron! From the start we could tell he was very knowledgeable and as first time buyers he has been very helpful in each stage of the process. Would highly recommend his services to anyone!

Dixons Estate Agent ~Erdington
We would like to start off and thank our special team in alphabetical order:
Charlotte ,Ewelina,Sam and Sarah....without you guys this sale would not have happened.

Team provided us with an excellent service. We had initially registered with another agency and in the months they had our property, we had to chase for updates. That particular company did not make us feel that we were priority. 18 weeks and no result Dixon’s team were SO different. We had updates from get go. Every viewings set up, we got email and text messages. We knew who was going into our property and the outcome. They made us their priority.

There was a constant communication with Sarah, she was the glue ~ our SUPER glue. She was our point of contact from point of sale agreement. She kept the communication going between us, our recommended solicitor and buyer. Assuring and guiding us. All the staff knew the status of our sale it shows the level of their excellence, their professionalism and passion for their job.
We could call anytime and felt free to do so. It really felt like nothing was any trouble. Everything ran really smoothly from initial conversation,going on the market to sale.
We are really happy with the level of service received by our girls listed and would recommend Dixon’s Erdington Branch to anyone if you want an easy, efficient, professional and honest service.
Keep up with the fantastic job guys. We really appreciated all your hard work.

Chased for money 14 months after vacating

I was renting a property managed by Dixon's with my house mate. I vacated the property after our contract had ended due to shockingly poor service. I informed Abigail Koasha from Dixons Selly Oak via e-mail that I had vacated the property and paid all the leavers fee's. I called to confirm with Country wide terminations that this was correct and received verbal confirmation that I had. My house mate then signed a new tenancy agreement on his own.

I have not had any contact from Abigail since leaving. 14 months later on, I received a call from Abigail stating that I owed money that my ex-housemate had not paid because she had not bothered to fill in the forms to remove my name from the tenancy. Abigail threatened me with court proceedings in her first call to me in 14 months. My housemate has stopped communicating with Dixon's so they found me an easy target to bump up their profits.

I have been forced to take this up with the property ombudsman because Dixon's continue to harass and threaten me with court unless I pay for a charge 14 months after I had left the property.

During my time in the property, I could not get hold of Dixon's when we had issues with the house. Precisely zero issues were rectified. If Dixon's spent half the time they do unscrupulously chasing for money and put that into customer service, they might stand a chance.

Please avoid using Dixon's at all cost. Shockingly poor service during and after the tenancy.

I currently rent with Dixons (hopefully not for much longer when I have my money together to move!)and have done since 2017.

Dixons on my property also manage the property instead of the landlord. You would therefore think; that in the face of any problems/issues- they would actually be relied upon to do their job?

Sadly not.

The service provided by this agency is that dire, once I am out, I will not touch a rental by Dixons, ever again.

There are 2 rental agents at the office that deals with my property yet neither of them seem to be able to pick up a phone and update, return phone calls or correspond in a non argumentative and unprofessional way.

I have been trying to call for two days now. Messages left. A call back is too hard, it seems.

Boiler problems in my property were on/off for nearly six months. Now a broken freezer for a week. Whilst those are quality issues and landlord issues, Dixons/Countrywide who deal with the repair side of things think the occasional phone call chasing the landlord is sufficient.

I am afraid it isn't.

Then lets talk about the fees for this absolutely rubbish service.

To just renew my contract last year- Dixons asked for approx £130. Bearing in mind the only thing that changes on that contract are dates and the need for an additional signature. Literally no adminstration at all. What the money was for given they can't even pick up a phone, I really don't know.

Do not rent with Dixons.

They are the worst agency out there.
