AVOID using this company. Shocking service in the context of a property sale and purchase. Slow response, and an archaic and out of date way of working. I was only given direct access to my designated solicitor 2 times. Due to the delays in service many issues with the property purchase went unresolved and unchecked. Rude, ambivalent staff who seemed surprised at requests for information even on the day of completion itself. Over £5,000 for the privilege. Never again.

I have had a terrible first (and last) experience with Pengelly and Rylands. I nearly lost the sale of my house because, the solicitor i was allocated, was not answering emails or returning phone calls from Myself, Ashford Borough Council or from my mortgage adviser. I resorted to copying the Managing Director into emails, no response from him either. The receptionist is extremely blunt and unapproachable too.
Then to rub salt in, approximately one month after completion, then an assistant solicitor from the firm, thinks it is acceptable, to ask me to pay an additional fee of £95! I paid the

No responses to emails over a two month period and that from a partner of the firm. Telephone calls were completely ignored.
Both our selling agents and our solicitors were at their wits end trying to progress our sale. As a retired Fellow of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, I have never come across such an unprofessional firm and hope I will never do so again. Whatever you do don't use Pengelly & Rylands.

Called about setting up a PoA. They promised to call back in a few minutes as the person that would handle it wasn't answering their phone. over 2 hrs later still waiting.
Called a rival firm in Tenterden and they got everything sorted and asked me to email the details so that they could draft it for signature tomorrow. Now *that's* service.
