Initially found the customer service very good. Had to wait nearly 3 weeks for the survey to be carried out but had to pay straight away to secure the surveying appointment. I wasn't very pleased about that. Didn't receive a courtesy email to inform me the survey had been completed or when I was going to receive the report, had to ring to find out. Found Sara's attitude dismissive when she referred me to terms and conditions re my complaint about poor customer service and no sign of the report on the afternoon of the very last day they said I would receive it. The report was emailed to me at 9pm that night. In conclusion I would say that customer service could be much better.
Thank you for getting in touch. We are sorry to hear that you were displeased with your service and I would like to take the time to address some of the issues you have raised in your comments. With regards to the delayed timeframe for being able to carry out your survey, unfortunately this is due to the popular demand for our service and is not something which we have any control over. Also, payment upon booking is simply company policy so that we can confirm your diary appointment. All information relating to the timescale for receiving your report once it has been carried out, is contained within the terms and conditions and is always stated by the booking agent upon confirmation. Customer service is paramount to our operation and I can assure you that no member of staff would ever intentionally behave in a dismissive manner and I am sorry if it came across this way. The report was sent within the specified timescale of 3-5 working days. That 5th working day was an inordinately busy day for myself and so in order to ensure that all reports were sent out to accord with our promised delivery time, I worked until late that evening sending out reports. I hope this clears everything up, however, if you would like to speak to me directly please do not hesitate to email or call. Kind regards, Jake Scraggs, Customer Experience Executive

Cosey Homes seemed to be very helpful when I contacted the office to chase the survey up. Christina contacted me initially within a very short space of time of me pressing go on the website. She seemed very friendly and was able to answer my initial questions. The seller said that the surveyor seemed very thorough and that he was there for the stated amount of time (I think she was hoping for a quick finish). The survey seems to be thorough - although I have not had any other to compare with.

They were efficient and before I received the report via e-mail, the surveyor phoned me and talked me through it and explained any terms that I might not understand. The Homebuyers report was comprehensive and also included lots of photographs.

The report was comprehensive and thorough. The homeBuyer Report compared the valuation of the house being purchased in Maidstone with three houses in Sheerness in Kent, a totally different area with different valuations! This was no doubt left over from somebody elses survey and was not changed for our report. An obvious mistake which should have been picked up in a review of the report that was delayed in their 'Quality Control' department for 2 days and they still got this wrong. This error did not affect the usefullness of the report and confirmation of the valuation was not an important aspect of the report.

Long wait time for availability of survey, but staff helpful and thorough and report submitted. Time to receive written report was 5 working days, and i didn't get the call back from the surveyor I'd requested on two occasions (at booking and 2 days after survey completed).

I thought it was odd the email containing the survey didn't come from the man who actually did the survey. This meant that the survey went into my junk mail at first. But Ben, who did the survey, was great when he called and went through what he'd found.

Very efficient. Report completed very thoroughly.

The quality of the survey was excellent, very detailed and thorough. My only slight criticism would be that it took a full week to get the report back following the survey but this shouldn't detract from the quality of the survey itself.
