    Always expect SOME element of fu.ckwittage - then you will never be disappointed.

    Sorry, I must have misunderstood. I thought this was a discussion board. How exactly does having a different opinion make me a "fu.ckwit"?

    The OP came here asking for advice on how she can legally deprive someone of their property. My advice was that she shouldn't.

    Chudders, you aren't helping my situation, so i politely ask you to not bother posting.

    Many thanks to those with constructive advice, but I think I'll be deleting my posts now.

    And for what it's worth, I had said the landlady has a whole host of reasons for trying to evict us, none of which are true as she has new tenants lined up to come in here.

    The landlord MUST house the tenant until a court allows bailiffs to remover her. That's the law. If a landlord can't stand that, don't go into business letting out your home.

    The OP is not depriving anyone of their property, the OP pays rent in exchange for a home and will continue to do so until instructed otherwise by a court.

    It's very simple, I'm sorry you can't grasp a simple business transaction.

    frampie, Don't take offence at the posts some people are idiots. If you want to try again you may want to try asking here:

    The deposit needs to have been protected before the S21 was served.

    A S21 is not a notice to quit. You may make yourself voluntarily homeless if you move too early in the process so make sure you know what's what before you move out.
  • do as has been suggested that is stay were you are, i have been there and done it as have a family of 7 so do understand and you will find the councils /housing associations have not the housing stock but have a duty to house you in suitable housing , SO STAY

    Seriously - kick a gal when she's down and you get ribbons and pearls.

    Tell someone to ignore fu.ckwittage and you get reported.
