I had a contract with Connells in St Albans earlier this year to market my house. I had little response so I ended the contract on 5th April of this year.

Yesterday a woman turned up unexpectedly at my house saying that Connells had sent her for a viewing. Today I noticed that Connells had re-advertised my house! All this without even informing me, let alone seeking my approval.

I note that this branch is ranked 18,408 out of 21,623 in the UK. Not far to go to the bottom.

I have called them but no one was available to take my call.
