My Landlady And Her Son Are Really Frustrating Me by mezico96(m): 10:14am On May 17, 2021 |
Good day guys, I know it's still early but am really really sad and angry right now. It all started when I moved in around December last year, Somehow she(my Landlady) got to know that my dad is into repairs of electrical devices. The son approached me and asked if I can take it to for repair, which I accepted and gave them a date(after informing my dad) since he works with schedules...throughout that period they didn't say anything to me about it until after my dad traveled for Christmas. I told him about the recent developments and he pleaded if I can take it to someone I know. >>>>Fast forward <<<< I took it to a guy close to my shop and he charged me N6,500 and in other to make things transparent I immediately called the son and told him everything, even insisted he speak to the electrician but he assured me that there's no need and if I had any money I should pay. >>>> I took it back to them the next day and requested for my money and he gave me some excuse but promised to pay up the next week, till date these people haven't given me a kobo. Two months ago I approached the son and requested they should be deducting it from my light bill which is N1000 per month and he said he'll have to discuss with the mom and she accepted. That month she paid for my bills. The next month she pleaded I assist her cos she was broke and I gave her the bill for that month but made her know it will be the last, until my money is complete. This morning she called and said I must pay for the light and start saying the item I repaired is not okay and I should show them the things I charged and if I don't pay she will cut my light bla bla bla... How can people be this ungrateful Please have I done wrong in helping them? How should I handle this? I need your advice please |

Your situation is quite peculiar but the truth is that you have all of the blame. Why? 1. You moved in last December and your landlady already knows your father's profession. If your father doesn't live with you, you should learn to shut your mouth bro. 2. Her son, is he lame or what? 3. Renting an apartment where the landlord/lady lives is a recipe for trouble nawwwwwwww. 11 Likes |

Draslo: Am the kinda guy that trust too much and most especially because she's an elderly woman, normally it's pay before service,but their rent is quite expensive, so I never saw that as a problem. The son? I don't wanna talk about his personal life The building, location and compound is to my taste, and since I don't stay home all day I never thought I'll be having issues with them. Ironically, when I moved in, she called me and told me how other tenants are gossiping about her and I should just mind my business. I never for once thought of having issues with her.... Never! 3 Likes |

mezico96: This is a red flag bro... why are they gossiping her? There's no smoke without fire. See... you are to blame o. Since you have decided to rent a house where the landlord also stays then you should have drawn a line between you guys. The moment they start coming to you for help politely turn them down. Those landlords that always look for God-fearing christians are usually the worst. The last house I stayed in... the useless landlord cut our light and later apologized saying that he thought that we were owing... okay.. fix it but he refused telling us to fix it ourselves... that was the beginning of hell for me o. but i showed him hell too. After my rent expired I kept the room locked up for another 2 months if not for my mom I wanted it locked for 3 to 5 months as I didn't enjoy light for the last 3 months of my rent due to his action and that of other tenants who were angry. Don't copy my method, it's not good but you should now have an idea of how to treat their fuckups 3 Likes 1 Share |

mezico96: I am sorry to tell you that u've fallen into the poor lady's nest. Just pay your light bill to prevent embarrassment. Next time don't let common people send u on unprofitable errands. Show them the place or what to do so that they do their stuffs themselves. With hindsight, they will even say u had something to gain from the errand they sent you. Just dash them the dough and don't talk about it again with any of them. 2 Likes |

You are wrong for accepting to pay for the repair over verbal assurance of repayment It's like you no dey naija, no matter how nice u are, the moment they asked you this pay for it if you have My money with you,you will say no u don't have that you didn't plan for such while stepping out,and return their appliance to them and give them the direction of where to repair it. Na ur fault op, don't trust people because they look nice,trust people with experience, it was too sudden for you to trust someone that you haven't even lived up to a year to have an idea of what type of person they are, now then Dem change am for you, you better pay ur light dies and forget the money with them, or they will cut your lights until you your light fee 1 Like |
