I vacated a property earlier this year (28th march 2025)and mistakenly left a standing order active. As a result, a payment of £1300 was taken from my account on 31st March 2025 After I vacated the property, I  contacted    the landlord immediately  and he ask me to contact the letting Agent (Gascoigne pees) for the issue as he doesn’t  deal with the money  side of things and he contacted the letting agent immediately, and they assured me they will  refund would be processed within 1, 2 weeks.  However, it almost 2month now , and I have not received the refund, nor have I been provided with any valid reason for the delay despite repeated follow-ups.Anytime I reach out  on call or message to the landlord he doesn’t pick up or return my calls even the letting Agent give excuses …

Excellent service from Grace Parsons - Farnham

Grace Parsons was fantastic to work with, professional, friendly, and highly efficient. She made the lettings process smooth and stress-free, always available to answer questions and provide helpful advice. Her dedication and customer service are outstanding. Highly recommend!

Poor Experience As a Renter

I recently rented a flat in Basingstoke, through the Farnham office (I know it doesn't make sense?). It was an old building converted into 4 new flats. When I was handed over the keys on 30th June I was actually looking forward to moving in.However the flat was dirty as were the windows inside and out. The lights did not work in all of the flat apart from the hall. Most of the sash windows could not be opened. To be fair these initial issues were fixed within 3 days the flat should never have been handed over in this state.There was two large bins at the property filled with building waste and garden waste. No proper provision was made for proper bins that tenants can use and that can be emptied weekly.I tried to register for Gas and Electricity supply to the property without success, as the Gas meters that had been fitted could not be traced on the "National Database" On 14th June Southern Gas Networks (Distributor) visited the building and cut all gas to the building as they said the meters had been put in illegally.To be fair again, Gascoigne-Pees did clarify within 24 hours that this should not have happened and that the gas would be reconnected.So no hot water and no gas to cook on for nearly a week! And still no idea WHEN the gas will be reconnected??I have been in the flat for nearly a month and still no bin provision and no idea when this issue will be resolved.I signed the Tenancy agreement online (via verisign) and did not receive a signed copy from the Landlord. An issue that I raised as the contract is NOT legally binding until both parties have signed and each party has a signed copy.So I was given a paper copy to sign and send to Gascoigne-Pees in the post, which I did. Still don't have a copy signed by both parties though!There is only 2 flats occupied in the building (including me) and two lots of tenants to move in. So the bin issue is going to get worse unless Gascoigne-Pees and the Landlord can actually take ownership and resolve the issue.The lettings team at the Farnham office do reply to emails and let me know things are in hand etc, they do communicate the problem is NOTHING HAPPENS!This laughable saga is a good example of HOW NOT TO RENT A FLAT. And they expect me to pay my rent on time for this shambles?!!!

Worst property managers EVER

25th August, 2021: Apart from not providing necessary maintenance in a timely fashion to the property due to a leaking roof, which led to a much more expensive fix for the property owner, when my son moved out they made no attempt to pay him back his deposit or the overpaid advanced rent. Repeated attempts to obtain the money were met with stories and blaming everyone and everything other than returning the funds with promises to fix it, escalate it etc. After 5 months of giving us the runaround we ended up having to go through the Property Ombudsman to get it resolved. Update 16th September 2021: As of today, Gascoigne Pees are offering to short pay the advanced rent and have told the Ombudsman that the deposit has been returned, which it hasn't. This company employs liars, cheats and the morally & ethically bankrupt. Don't use them either as property managers or as landlords. Update, 12th October 2021, Gascoigne Pees have still not returned the deposit and short paid (less than 50%) the advanced rent with no explanation. They have lied to the Ombudsman and are still ignoring their legal responsibilities. There is currently no resolution in site…Update: January 2nd 2022 - The Property Ombudsman is about to decide on the arbitration, but Gascoigne Pees still owe over £1,000 and don't even seem to recognize that they owe anything. Unbelievable - we'll see how this ends up now that GP has provided TPO with their "Final Position" statement, which admits failures in dealing with the situation, but still doesn't account for the missing funds.

Disappointing Unacceptable Service

I cannot recommend Gascoigne-Pees, Leatherhead branch, after six months I am convinced that they were the wrong choice to sell my property. I definitely did not feel valued. When I decided to end the Agency Agreement, on 28/11/2024, I was completely ignored. After two visits to the branch I managed to get an acknowledgement. However, on the second visit (19/12/2024), the Assistant Branch Manager, was completely unapologetic. In my opinion his manner was offensive, rude and unprofessional. I left the office feeling very upset and physically shaken. I have awarded them one star for the fact, that I did receive an apology from their Customer Relations Officer.

Ben Calder - Rentals

From the moment Ben called me things began to get sorted. He started straight away, and has kept me informed throughout, which turned out to be a really quick process! Everything was sorted for me, I was kept up to date with the progress. It has been the most amazing experience, I can’t fault anything! If only every company had a Ben!!

Liars with no sense of accountability

These estate agents downright lied to us before moving in about what came with the flat and throughout continued to lie about the interactions we had. Their complaints process is as useless as they are and I'm convinced is completely biased towards the estate agents. They are criminal - do not go anywhere near.

My experience getting an apartment was completely stress-free. After weeks of searching, I contacted Gascoigne-Pees Esher, and all the stress and worry about finding a good place to live finally came to an end. Thanks to their amazing manager, Benjamin, and the ever-helpful Rosie, the entire process was smooth, efficient, and pleasant. To top it all off, I even received a lovely welcome gift! GLORIA

Farnham branch

This company in Farnham has let our property for many years. Unfortunately now they seem to be complacent and we have to chase them for property checks to be carried out as per our contact. Once they finally did the check we are still waiting 3 weeks later for their findings. Also we have rung them throughout the day and left messages in their phone but they never bother to ring us back. They seem to have lost interest and we are rapidly losing patience.We would not recommend this branch of the company.

Purchased a flat

Have just purchased a flat through Gascoigne Pees Redhill branch and can not fault at all Daniel Beckson, he went way and beyond with this sale and I can highly recommend him. A great asset to Gascoigne Pees. Also Janene Haynes was very helpful too.

Worst Experience Ever with Gascogne Pees Kingston Branch

I had the worst experience ever using Gascogne Pees to fully manage my property. They consistently chose the more expensive contractors who did not deliver good service and failed to honor warranties. After 4 years of their management, my property was in a dire state. I ended up spending over £20,000 on repairs and restoration. The staff, from lettings to property management, were unhelpful, rude and ineffective. Never again.

Jack Bayton of Gascoigne Pees

Jack Bayton has been incredibly supportive with the process of renting our new property. He responds quickly to enquires and has been understanding and kind. Would highly recommend using Gascoigne Pees to find your future home.

Sale of house

Excellent estate agents. Instructed Gascoigne Pees (Worcester Park branch) on both a house purchase and house sale. The team went over and beyond throughout the whole process. They were adaptable re pricing given changes in housing market and also suggested local firms of solicitors to use. Great team, professional and personable. Would use them again and again. Fully recommend and massive thank you!

Worst organised letting company

Worst organised letting company. I have several properties that I use letting agents to manage. By far, Gascoigne-Pees are the worst. They charge for everything despite me paying for full managed property they make additional charges for anything they do. They consistently fail to do anything that they say they will do. Their different departments don't communicate with each other. They give letting/estate agents a bad name.

A Professional Service

My rental move was made easy, I had someone always available for questions and I found the process simple, professional and approachable. I felt I was heard as a prospective tenant, listened to and patronising or cold interaction which I have experienced before with some property agents, were not felt with Gascoigne Pees.

Extremely disappointed

I am extremely disappointed with this agency’s lack of transparency and professionalism. They made adjustments quietly, leaving me to discover the increase on my own. This kind of practice feels untrustworthy. I cannot recommend them based on my experience.

Deposit

Deposit: I rented an apartment for over 1.5 years (small studio flat), I got it dirty, including the tools left in it, the walls were unpainted, full of dust and paint smeared on door frames, doors, etc. I gave away the apartment, which was very clean and practically ready for rent. For this, my deposit was charged with enormous amounts that are far from reality. The cost of painting was £600, cleaning £180 etc. for a studio flat which was beautifully cleaned. Even on the report they could not distinguish the pink cube in the water in the toilet that cleans from the scale in the water from the scale in the water. I consider it extortion and fraud. Unprofessional team and lack of trust in this company including the deposit management company.

Poor communication and knowledge of their portfolio

This company are very disappointing to deal with. They are extremely difficult to get hold of and when you do finally get a response that response is brief and lacks the professional knowledge you would hope for when spending large amounts of money through them.

Unprofessional and pushy

Extremely unprofessional estate agency - south west London area. I literally felt harassed on the telephone to provide my email and phone number when I was only enquiring about a property, not even trying to view it. It was a man on the other end and he made me feel very uneasy. I will not be looking at properties with them ever since they would have my home address too. It's an appalling industry.

appalling and disgusting treatment for our property

We have a listing with this company who has been professional and friendly up to the point of customer visits to our property.We have a carpeted flat and both the agent and the customer did not remove their shoes when showing the flat. What makes me furious was that on the day of the visit it was raining and muddy and yet there was NO consideration shown in removing shoes to access the property.We complained to the branch manager Michael White who apologised and I've just had a 2nd visit from another customer and again NO SHOES removed on access and guess what's going on outside right now.Storm Ciaran.So if my property was going to receive 20 visits, what condition are my carpets going to be in after?Absolutely disgusting and appalling service, it is common courtesy to be considerate of another family's home and yet none was shown and not only that, after having already complained once already you neglect to follow up on it.Undecided yet what to do as I was unable to reach the branch manager.

Warning - avoid this company at all costs

Warning! Fraud! Avoid buying uniforms from this company - at all costs. The company would not refund me - for a product that they never confirmed was ordered, but for which I was charged (I tried to check out, and apparently it worked, although no confirmation was issued). I had to follow up three times asking for a refund, as they did not send the items. Only after I threatened to file a complaint did they take action.The customer service agent, Sarah, made up many stories - about the order being confirmed, about refunding me in 7-10 days, etc. She never apologized. Instead, she responded with excuse after excuse. I'm confident they will make up some stories in response to my complaint. ;) Can't wait to see what she says next! Another excuse!

Kingston Branch

Disappointing. Tried contacting the agents a number of times (on different days) about viewing a particular property, as a keen buyer. No call back or reply to emails. Very poor service and a waste of time for people that genuinely just want to find somewhere to live.
