I love this idea - so do they offer two options now when you call? 'option 1 for a smooth move' or 'option 2 for a not so smooth move' Brilliant!

Emergency hotline? why not just patch them through from 999! honestly! Dear customer if your feeling 'stranded' please call the Samaritans first and foremost! then put the kettle on and think is it wise to use another company exactly the same as the one that's just failed and you didn't sell through! even if they are free?

With so much doom and gloom around at the moment with Brexit and ‘I’m Celebrity Get Me Out of Here’ ending I'm glad to hear just now that another call centre has been saved! Bless you and thanks Adam Male! Emoov is now sold! Whoop whoop! Enjoy your '£7 millions pounds worth of excellent technology'

Mr Blobby is also interested in taking over at Emoov, after a recent independent pole - the public have decided he can take better photos and has a higher chance of securing a sale. Mr Blobby is going to call it 'Blobbymoov'

I think this is a really good idea! A hybrid estate agency with a fantastic brand, as opposed to the “smart price” appearance of the likes of PB and YOPA. It will be interesting to see if they can retain the people they need to keep Humberts in the minds of the historical seller. I just hope they don't ruin a fantastic brand by adding too much on to the related services like removals and mortgages. It doesn't take long for people to cotton on to being overcharged, especially in the upper quartile they've been accustomed to.

You think they would of learnt at some point! with an average of 145,000 homes being built year, against a target of 250,000, I know what lets change the housing minster for 8th time in 8 years!!

Purple Bricks offered 1000's of their costumers money off their fee if they gave a positive reviews, as seen on watchdog. They are the Donald Trump of the industry, producing fake news to suit their own agenda! This is a good read from Anthony Codling at Jefferies, it shows that only half of the people (51%) that pay up front actually sell successfully with PB. As you can imagine Anthony Codling at Jefferies is another company that's been threatened with legal action for broadcasting facts. Half of the sellers never go on to complete a sale with PB, so PB need to accept the reviews. It’s the '£1,000 coin toss' the costumers don't like! https://javatar.bluematrix.com/pdf/xU6OXBQJ?id=Euro_Equities_All@Jefferies.com

2.16 per cent in 2014?? yes that right... ha! This is a good read from Anthony Codling at Jefferies, only half the people (51%) that pay up front actually sell. 'The £1,000 coin toss' https://javatar.bluematrix.com/pdf/xU6OXBQJ?id=Euro_Equities_All@Jefferies.com

No i didn't miss the point! I only ever witnessed Countrywide offering better exclusive mortgages the majority of the time then small firms of IFAs and the client always went with the best rates, it never had anything to do with enhancing the chances of getting a house! however I witnessed poor standards from IFAs using the 'Knowing the client card' on occasion even know they are costing the client more a month! now that is poor standards surely?!

Thanks independent mortgage strategy mag ha! I worked for countrywide for 18 years, they are no different to any company selling any product, in fact they could of been a lot more focused on selling all the products they offer. Some offices booked a few mortgage appointments month, some none!! pressuring buyers, really? btw they can use any lender beside the likes of woolich and HSBC (when i left anyway) , however they have a panel they get exclusive rates with but are not tied too. The beauty of countrywide mortgage services is the consultants are paid the same commission regardless of which lender appose to an IFA who may get £500 commission from one lender and maybe £1500 from another, which one would would you get advise from?
