    Hello old friends!

    I just checked and I have the 3rd highest post count on this thread!

    EL you are first and clutton is 2nd.

    I am assuming there is a quicker way than looking at each and every post to compare...?

    Yes, go to the page the thread is on then look to the right of the title it shows numbers of posts in blue and number of views in black. Click on the blue and a new window will open showing the person with the highest post count on the thread and every one else in descending order.

    Don't suppose you know what page we get close to the court case / resolution? I'm on page 8 so far and dont want to lose the full day!

    Edit: Found it (skipped a few pages)

    Finally getting the money back great. Was a little disappointed with the ammount but as it was pointed out later at least the LL got a bigger bill with all their costs! And the money back on the Milan holiday.. Fantastic!
  • Wow, i've just spent a few days reading this & couldn't stop! What an exciting thread & so nice to see everyone being so supportive too! So glad the witch got stung for all that! Think this is the longest thread i've ever read here!
  • This is such an inspiring thread, I've just about given up in getting a penny back of the £300 deposit I paid. Unfortunately I'm dealing with these guys http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/watchdog/2008/11/the_landlord_breaking_his_word.html who are completely above the law it seems.

  • Hello all and great to see the thread popping up - as you say it might help others, I do hope so as our combined heart and soul went into it!

    Sorry to hear that mellymeep, wow they seem slippery -however, sometimes you get a stroke of luck and by some magical intervention, something comes to light...

    Also wanted to ask, if now is ok to get rid of all the court paperwork? It's lurking evilly in a drawer...
