    thanks for all your respones.

    we have now actually had feedback from the housing association to say that there was a !!!! up in the finance dept. some home owners had actually been told that their rent was going to go up to £2000 a month so it's one hell of a major !!!! up!!
    anyway, our rent will not be going up to £330 as we were previously told, it is only going up by £4.63 to £161.53 so at least we will still be able to afford it.

    thanks again

    Great news. Hope they spend the increase on a new accountant ;)

    Glad to hear it was just an admin error! I bet it wasn't really, and they were trying their luck to see if anyone kicked up a stink hehe.
