I recently travelled down to Norwich with my girlfriend who was looking to move into a flat ahead of her new Masters degree at UEA. She specifically stated that she was a student to the advisor on the phone, who then arranged a viewing for several apartments. We travelled down to Norwich for two days, staying overnight, in order that we could view these flats. She again stated to the agent showing us the flats that she was a student, and the agent said that another PG student was living in one of the flats managed by the estate agency. When my girlfriend phoned back to confirm her interest in the (very nice) flat, she was then told that the landlord did not accept student tenants. This was an outrageously late time at which to mention this fact, considering she had told them on at least two occasions that she was, indeed, a student. Not only did the agency neglect to properly inform us of the situation, they have repeatedly promised to phone back (after our request for them to ask the landlord directly), and we have heard nothing. We spent three days of our busy lives heading down to Norwich from Manchester, involving driving for several hours, only to be lied to and then mistreated. Quite frankly, this estate agency should be ashamed of themselves.

We were buying from a seller using Gilson Bailey, I can say that this was the worst experience I've ever had with an estate agent. They were pressuring us to complete in as little time as possible. From the get go the agent, Louise Wilson, was hounding us. They will make an already stressful ... Read Full Review

From the prospective of Gilson Bailey landlord property rental, in our opinion and experience their full management service was very expensive for nothing more than a post box service. Gilson Bailey would not accept our recommended good contractors / suppliers who had worked on the property ... Read Full Review

Fantastic at the beginning but after a time sadly their entire attitude changed. They became unprofessional in tone. We were outright lied to.

I was offered a viewing for a property and was then asked if I had a pet, which I replied I did. I was told that unfortunately this is no pets so I couldn't have the slot, which was fair enough.

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.
