Foxtons and the corruption of UK estate agents

How much would you not want to work in Foxtons' press office right now? Tonight's BBC1 Whistle Blower documentary was the talk of the office and the online forums today. Now, after the airing, you wonder what the firm will do to respond. One thing is for sure, they will lose a lot of customers overnight.

Foxtons is the estate agent with one of the biggest brands in the UK, and the industry's richest boss. The expose on its corruption I found, as someone about to sell a house, really disturbing. DONT USE FOXTONS!
