Flint Bishop Bewertungen 

An unbelievably difficult, impersonal company to deal with. Congratulations if you get past the obstreperous telephonist and find who to talk to. Letters and emails are unsigned without contact details. Once through to an associate I was left waiting and hour and 23 minutes, she only responded three times and each time to get me off the phone and requested that I come back later.

It’s interesting to see the Flint Bishops replies to poor reviews are nearly all a ‘cut and paste’ of the previous reply.

Having heard very negative reviews regarding this company for conveyancing purposes - we would have never chosen to use them. However unfortunately this company representated our buyers and wow did they live up to the reviews we had heard before. Slow, little to absolutely no communication with our solicitors, rude when then did contact our solicitors or estate agent. I guess the rudeness is likely due to the fact they appear to specialise in debt collection. A really basic purchase they've made unnecessarily difficult, which has taken over 6 months. Note to anyone wanting to use them- they have a post room (don't expect the solicitor to act on anything being sent to them via post for at least a few weeks). Overall a very unprofessional converyancing team. Please don't use them, and expect major issues if anyone in your chain is using them!!

Flint Bishop have been employed by Valda energy to retrieve money not due to them. Flint Bishop do not care if its right or wrong and are just after adding their cut. This is the problem with Valda:
Valda energy, after leaving them 3 months ago, have never agreed a leaving meter read with British Gas (my new and much better supplier), no matter how hard British Gas try. Valda energy have now set Flint Bishop onto me despite the final Invoice being in doubt, as above, and they have added late payment fees. They also tried to use my Debit card from three years ago (they shouldn't have kept the card data) to take the money which I managed to stop.
This company cannot be trusted and you set up a contract with them at your own cost, beware this company costs time and money.

Flint Bishop need to test if something is right or wrong otherwise they get tared with the same brush. Do not accept anything this company say's.

The Flint Bishop team was excellent from start to finish.Lauren who i was in contact with most of the time was very informative and guided me through the whole process.Everything ran smoothly and my house purchase completed ahead of the estate agents rough timeline!.Lauren is a huge credit to the FB team and I was very impressed with her knowledge and felt very relaxed leaving it all in her capable hands.Thanks Lauren and Flint Bishop👍

Lauren was very helpful all the way through the process of selling a property for me.First class service from start to finish,would highly recommend to anyone to use.

I very complicated sale of a shared ownership property via joint probate was made very easy by Lauren. Clear communication, great support when not all the questions could be answered, and empathy when needed all helped this awful process much easier.

As others have mentioned, chasing fake debts for Octopus Energy that don't exist, threatening CCJ's etc but then never responding to evidence that they're all liars. Definitely not a reputable company and I have contacted the Ombudsman regarding this.

Bunch of liars, sent a letter to me about unpaid electricity bill at the same time that my REAL electric bill came. Wrong account number and wrong balance charge. Scammers

Communications with Elliot Metcalf and his team were straightforward. It took a little while to get used to the system, largely because we had not been involved in dealing with conveyancing for some 17 years.
Sometimes we felt a little frustrated but on almost every occasion there was a good reason for the lack of progress particularly on our sale--usually the lack of progress from another firm of solicitors!

Chasing my company for a debt of another despite proving all. They just harrass you.

Never respond to emails, send letters chasing debts which don't exist, online chat useless and the person on there isn't even listed on their website, addresses letters to "Sir / Madam" and then demand to know your name before discussing anything - I can see why there are so many one star reviews.

Avoid at all costs.

We stopped using Flint Bishop a couple years ago as we got fed up with their snail pace with whatever they did for us.
Sadly, we recently sold our house and our Buyer is using them. Contract sent to them a month ago and no response 🤦‍♂️

This is the second time we have used Flint Bishop now. Super efficient service. Very helpful and kept us updated along the way. Would recommend to anyone. Big thank you to Elliot Metcalf for all your help!

Sukhy was the best solicitor I’ve ever used. Excellent communication and advice. She also hit deadlines we requested.

Received a demand letter dated 3/3/2025 for the sum of £4,185-08, related to British Gas Lite. NOT our debt, WRONG company name, we have NEVER been associated with Sheffield! Appalling reception when I contacted them re THEIR errors. Scrutiny by The Law Society appears to be required, AND an apology may not come amiss.

False claims and threatening letters don’t respond to emails edited to add after your response I have emailed prior to this still no response update again 11/04 still no response to your threatening letters. Update on April fools day. Sent threatening false draft of ccj still no response from many emails. Now reported to SRA and legal ombudsman. I urge everyone else to do the same

Dreadful. Churning out threatening letters for 9 months on a property that was sold 17 months ago.
There is a complete breakdown of systems at British Gas who employ Flint bishop to chase up fictitious bills . Harassment from all sides.
I am preparing to take them to court for harassment.
Awful company who when challenged just blame it on British Gas !

They trying to get money according to false information and documents. This people are scammers

Flint Bishop sent false documentation and constantly chase a 'debt' which does not exist. They do not reply to emails and are very difficult to communicate with. I have taken advice for harassment.

We used Flint Bishop for the sale of some land. Having had bad experiences with out previous solicitors, Edward at Flints did a fantastic job for us, kept us upto date with the process and this was done in a very timely manner. Highly recommended and we will definitely use again.
