I just like this your approach to the matter.

By legally you mean if contracts were exchanged or if they used words of mouth yeah?

Will it make difference if there is no binding contract (i.e not legal in this case)?

UniqueDext:
Because i now have a new roommate which made her to increase the rent by £200 , i told her that she should give me sometime as am waiting for my new roommate to send hes money as i cant pay the full rent on my own

This your matter don get complications........

Did you seek LL permission, before you sublet .......

Did you sign any tenancy agreement........

Your starting point, head to your nearest police station and make a complaint..........

The fact that the LL increased rent becuase of the room mate means she accepted it even if he did not inform her at first. It looks like it's a shared apartment and the LL resides there too in which case there's no way she will not be aware.

UniqueDext:
I was new in the UK then, so i dont know about the scheme.
Am thinking of calling the police once i come back from work.

Pls post your initial post on facebook on this group- The Tenants Voice Group. You would get lots of support and advice about the legitimate way you can get her. Also arrange your rent and pay.

Before you take any step,

Did you rent the flat legally ?

Do you have signed tenancy agreement ?

Did you inform the LL before taking in a room mate ?

Kindly ensure you’ve followed all due process prior before renting the apartment, so you don’t burn your hands

The moment LL transgressed, the rent payment is the least of LL problems........ This tenant would reside in that house for month's (rent free)......

Section 21, would not save the LL .........🤣

Let's first get the tenant, answer the little matter of tenancy legalities..........

Good morning my people ....another question, please between a Band 6 NHS job and SEO civil service job, which would you prefer? Context - SEO pays more compared to the band 6 but its a fixed term employment (one year) ...might be renewable.

the decision should align with your personal and professional priorities, If financial gain and a broad range of experiences in a short term are more appealing, the SEO Civil Service job might be the better choice, if you prefer job stability and a career in healthcare, the Band 6 NHS position could be more suitable, consider also the work environment, team culture, and opportunities for future progression in each role.

Less job security in Civil service roles(cos it’s fixed term) but offer a broad range of experiences, which might be valuable for your future career moves,

My boss, m thinking of buying a reliable car of 4k to 4.5k
Which do you think is best and where can one buy from autotrader or fb market.

Plus is it better to go for the likes of toyota or hyundai
Or go for german like golf and the likes.

Cus have hrd too many stories of ppl saying toyota car might be cheap but repairs might be expensive cus the part has to be shipped from china or japan
And have heard ppl say german cars might be expensive but repair is cheap cus parts are in europe and not far from uk

What is ur take pls
I dont mind if others contribute too

P.S i am not a outdoor person i rarely drive, infact i hate driving, m buying the car to increase chances of getting job

The issue of car part being expensive might be true but I’m not convinced with the fact that one particular maker being expensive compare to another, the rule of thumb is that those mechanic still charges the same amount per hour irrespective of the car make, my mechanic do allow me to source parts online and he still charge almost same amount for the car, not much difference in my pay when I changed from mazda to Mercedes,

Most important is to buy a car that won’t be giving you much problems, start from the mot history of the car, age, mileage, reason for selling, how May previous users, how long mot was last done etc,

Come to talk of it, if not for the cost of repair that is way too expensive, we don’t normally think of all this back in Nigeria because the cost of repair is very cheap, repaired just a common mazda Alternator for 250£ (less than 30k before I left Nigeria (mistakenly put wrong fuel in the car also cost me around 120£ ) etc, wanted to get mot done cost me almost 1,200£ to fix the car ( car that still works fine, but must repair cos of mot), happy that the car is off road now self cos of accident, really cost me a lot then

Have you seen now?

yes thank you

You can easily start from calling the police then they will escalate the issue to proper authority if need be

Is a lie, if you like use 5 years in Scotland, you can only pay home fees if you have a settled status which is indefinite stay. Stop misleading people.

Zahra29:


You're right, I forget sometimes that Scotland is a bit of an anomaly in some aspects.

For the rest of the UK though, permanent residence is required.

It doesn’t matter if he legally rented the apartment, the LL actions are unlawful. She has no legal leg to stand on as it’s.

The fact that he has been paying rent for about a year is enough tbh . Verbally agreement is legal in this country. He friend went through similar situations in the hand of one Asian landlord , she didn’t have any assured contract but last last she got help and na the landlord lose eventually.

It matters alot (infact, it's the spine of this matter).......

Without a legal contract, you cannot be deemed a tenant......

LL could claim she simply housed an unruly family member......

Without a contract, if the LL is wise..... She would get away with murder.......

If no contract is evident and LL is only accepting cash ......

How would deposit be paid into deposit scheme, without the legal framework.........

As I said, this matter be like onions..... If not peeled properly, tears would flow ........🤔🤣

Stop playing, house an unruly family for a year and keep collecting money from the family?

Did she go to the authorities to report this tenant? Did she serve him quit notice?

What lawful measures did she take to resolve this issue?

Exactly!!

To answer your questios, i rented the house through flatshare where the landlord posted the room.

I called her through the contact available on flatshare , we discussed price, i then go ahead and made the payment to her account.
No contract was sign...
Details and proof are available on chart though.

Rented directly from Landlord through flatshare website

I didn't seek her permission to sublet,

I knew that if we had to be two people in the room that i will have to pay higher price,

my friend moved in after i have already paid last month rent, due to the fact that he just arrived UK and my plan was on the next payment i will pay the new rent for both of us,
i discussed this with her last week before this issue started and we agreed that i will pay the increased rent for both of us,
The day i was supposed to make this payment was the day she came to the house and Change our house key (afternoon time) trying to lock me outside.

Less than 48hours after changing the key she came back and remove my room door, at the moment my room is open and no privacy for me.
