Beresford Adams, a good estate agent!

Advantages: good communication, regulated, friendly
Disadvantages: none!
...Looking to buy a property in this turbulent market, with 4 possibles after 60+ viewings, we have come across many different agents with many different working methods!

We explained that he'd have to be on time, since we had an appointment to view a property.
The following day, at the appointed time, there was still no show. We called the office, and someone called the agent. He's on his way, we were told. Half an hour late, and twenty minutes before our appointment - which was ten minutes' drive away - the agent appeared on the doorstep. He didn...

Avoid for Now
Review of Norwich Union Life & Pensions Limited by
daffydoos
Advantages: Excellent contracts and low premiums
Disadvantages: Terrible administration at both regional and national level
...as much as possible - they have great contracts and competitive premiums.
I am sure this is just a short-term issue, but my advice would be to use them only if you are absolutely adamant that it has to be Norwich Union - to everybody else, give it a couple of months, or pick another provider....
