PurpleBricks – It’s a love or hate relationship isn’t it?

February 23, 2018

For any news channel, editor, writer, blogger, vlogger, social media marketeer and literally near enough anyone with an opinion to share out to an audience, Purplebricks really gives us some amazing content to tuck in to in order to keep our readers and viewers engaged. Love them or hate them, use them or not, save money or lose out, sell your home or left frustrated, work for them or work against them it is without doubt clear that Purplebricks are a force to reckon with and their name and brand alone will carry them further in to the world of global brands and achieve them the status of having their very own dedicated complaints department.

Let us face it, we all love to complain and the bigger the company is that we are taking out our frustrations on then the more right we feel we have to complain. Trains late, get on to the rail company on Twitter, mobile phone not working then phone up customer services and demand a replacement handset by tomorrow, pizza didn’t arrive on time then it’s a free £10 voucher for you if it spoilt your evening agenda.

I like to stay out of the debate being a person that has never used their service though not one who’d reject the service if I felt I could achieve a sale with them either. No, I do not own my local Purplebricks franchise and this is not a sponsored blog either for Purplebricks or against them. So if I have no comments to share either-way then I thought I would gather some very differing opinions of them you can get that are on line and especially looking at Youtube:

So, what do Purplebricks state themselves to be? Here are five videos I chose from Youtube:

Here’s the buzz that working for Purplebricks could give you – Their 2017 winter conference:

A good agent is not going to work for Purplebricks and you get what you pay for is the message in this great video:

I could no collate videos from Youtube on Purplebricks without including the great Mr Christopher Watkin and his always lively opinions:

“I’ve got nothing by good things to say about Purplebricks” says one person leaving feedback on Youtube, but further investigations shows he is an agent for them:
