£150 !!!!....... more like pesetas. a 1st year apprentice would know better.
It's like the wiring I did in our garden shed ...... I was 13 at the time !!!
Bad advice, the tenant has no legal right to withhold rent, doing this could result in you being evicted and made homeless. Furthermore it could wreck your credit rating and if the landlord wanted to he could tell others that you stopped paying for no reason. This could affect your future housing prospectsThen stop paying rent till he sorts it out
Hi All,
Thanks again for all your posts.
We have contacted the council and we have someone coming round to check it next week.
We contacted the agent again on the request of the council asking for something to be done as we still think its unsafe (didn’t mention this web site), we also asked about the windows they fitted (that has holes under the frames but that’s a different story!)
They sent our comments to the landlord, got back home the other night and there was an eviction notice on the door mat, can't say we are too sad about it, but want to make sure there is an improvement order on the property before we go, wouldn’t want any new tenants getting hurt or worse.
We did have the notice checked over and its all legal so we have no come back, which wasn't a shock, looking for a smaller and newer place to rent this time!
Will let you know what the person from the council says :25:
Looks like you now have 2 lollipop rings there, and either a shower or cooker circuit that's been connected via this external connector strip...
Couple that to all the other discrepancies, and there is more than a case against this landlord on safety issues, and i would imagine a decent case against the agents as well. Not as if they were unaware of a safety issue, they should have been covering there own arse and making approaches to the landlord to rectify the situation...
