thanks4idias: Oga/ madam, If your passport is expired, apply for renewal even if the appointment date is far off. Evidence of application alongside the expired passport is sufficient for whoever needs the passport as an evidence. Don’t leave it till it is extremely important and u start looking for a connect in London o!. |

Your clarity is loud and clear. So essentially, you've moved in already. Your contract started ticking, (Lexusgs430 assumed correctly). Your clarity also shows that you're on a 9 mths contract (Oct to Jun) and you have two more quarterly rental payments to make: 05 Jan and 05 Apr. Your rental agreement doesn't look like the norm. However, it is what it is. It's the subsisting contract. It has to be honoured. With that said, pay attention to Onecoder valuable suggestion: cordial, frank engagement with the landlord. Be factual yet 'firm'. Lexusgs430 suggestion remains valid. LaXxOnebody was not way off either. With the clarity you've provided, you have to engage the landlord to reason and effect changes. Whatever you do or the out outcome is or is not, one thing that must happen by 04 Jan is that you must ensure £700 is paid for the rent. You'll take each month as it comes, dealing with all the issues that might crops up. Regarding you ensuring you at least paid the one month for Jan and monthly subsequently, kindly guard against using the phrase, unilateral change, whether by you or the agent/landlord. Just use the term, circumstances or any similar. All the best. @Ticha, any suggestion from rental law point of view on effecting monthly payment in good faith? This seems one of your strong areas.

Please are there any alternatives to this ohentpay? The reviews are not encouraging in the slightest In terms of sending money home and vice versa |
Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by Ticha: 3:10am On Dec 27, 2022 |
semmyk: You are right. OP, Pay for January - follow it up immediately with an email explaining that due to circumstances beyond your control, you can only pay monthly for the foreseeable future. Include that you love the home, look after it as it it's your own, will not default in rent and you're happy for them to come have an inspection at a mutually convenient time. They will have to give you 2 months notice to leave, you can also choose to stay and not leave and continue paying rent even when the notice ends. They'll have to take you to court and if you're paying your rent, have evidence the house is looked after and that you also informed them of that, you have a very strong chance of the court ruling in your favour too. No sane agent/ landlord will go through the hassle of the court process of a tenant that is not an issue. Good luck 9 Likes |

Yes you can and should but remember only use a credit card to buy what you can afford and do not go about 25% of your limit as a rule of thumb. American Express has the best approval rate for new comers at the moment. You can use my link here https://americanexpress.com/en-gb/referral/nnAnnW9hPF?XL=MNANS and we both get 4000 avios points once you are approved. Gift7428: 2 Likes |

Yes it's the Cash ISA and you get 25% interest from the the Government (not public funds) on whatever you 'save'. Moneybox is good, has a good interest rate with zero charges. twizzie: 2 Likes |
