Yeah just let anyone into my flat thanks

Its the 21st Century , theres no shame in being gay now mate

When we lived in halls the Janitors used to come in to our flat all the time to use the bog!

The amount of times I had to hold in a freshly consumed bucket was ridiculous

We've had a real problem with this sort of thing since we moved in, in November.

- Gas safety check (x 2 because for some reason the landlord decided to do another one on top of the one which was done a month ago)

The property is being sold so..

- Valuations
- Energy check
- Viewings - this is the worst - they were giving us less than 24 hours notice so we complained to our letting agency who had a word with the estate agents, only for my flatmate to get a note through the door at 1pm just before he set off for work about a viewing scheduled for 5pm the same day (the rest of us were already at work).

It take the fucking piss, it's not my problem the landlord is selling the property and I appreciate they need to arranging viewings etc, but I'm not happy with randoms being able to turn up when they want and eye up our TV/PS3 etc.

EDIT.. also the landlord's dad turned up to paint the bathroom ceiling and suddenly decided to burst into the bedroom where my boyfriend was asleep to check on a slight damp problem in the corner. Nowt like asking if it's ok first like...

One of the sets of people who turned up didn't even lock the front door properly either, they just pulled it shut which I was really pissed off about since you could easily put your hand through the glass and pull the latch back if the bottom lock isn't done. :evil:

Unfortunately it's one of the problems with renting... they should give you plenty of notice though.

It's a step up from the bed.

tell the truth... you were doing helter skelters weren't you si....!!!!!!!

If he does that I'll end up dead one day and Rossy will get done for some form of murder charge. My memory is appalling , I'd walk right into it! :doh:

change the locks, then tell the agency that you've been forced to change the locks due to them breaching the terms of your contract and failing to give you the required advance notice, tell them that in future they must give you 3 days notice as required under your contract and won't be able to get in as you've changed the locks. Make sure you tell them you'll change the locks back at the end of your tenancy, and that you'll be taking the costs of the new locks out of your rent for this month.

don't take any shit from landlords, they'll sharp threaten to kick you out the minute you're late with the rent / have a cat etc. so don't take any shit from them.

just make sure you get some spare keys cut, and give an emergency key to someone you trust in case you lock yourselves out...

My landlord is supposed to give me 48 hours notice before he is aloud to come round.

Not that it stops him turning up un-announced like

So true, every landlord I've ever had has been a complete waste of space.

Hold them to the contract.

my landlord is really sound cant do enough for us,
