I don’t usually write negative reviews, but my experience with Bilal at Stockwood Strategy was so unprofessional that I feel it is important to share. For context, I never hired their PR services, so this review is not about their actual work. They may well be good at what they do.
I spoke with Bilal on two introductory calls, and instead of a simple business discussion, he became outright abusive. He repeatedly told me to “f*** off,” made derogatory remarks about Indians, and even gave unsolicited advice on how to run my business. I told him directly that I did not appreciate such comments and that I only wanted to discuss PR-related work, yet the disrespect continued.
All I had done was point out that his £13,000 quote felt high compared to others and politely asked if he could adjust the pricing or scope. A simple “no” would have sufficed, but instead the call turned hostile in a way I would never expect from a professional in public relations.
PR is a serious investment, and it is crucial to work with someone you can trust and communicate with. This review is not about Stockwood Strategy’s actual PR outcomes, but about the lack of basic respect and professionalism in my interactions with Bilal.
