    This is my final post. James I said whose responsibility is it, in the context of the whole sentance, meaning who is responsible for getting it fixed. I didn't ask 'who is responsible?'

    Thank you all for your help on this. I am now clearer and calmer and have an idea of where I can turn if the landlord still does not act upon my report to him.

    Almost every post on here where the T lifestyle is recognised to be causative of mould / condensation problems, results in black mould on coldest walls, in corners, or behind / under poorly ventilated furniture or spaces.

    That sort of issue is not present at all here.

    Yes, T lifestyle can often be to blame but given the photograph of the issue - that is not symptomatic of a T lifestyle issue.

    As others have said, report in writing and keep a copy. Make sure you keep the photostoo. It will be for the deposit scheme to decide at the end of your tenancy, not for your LL.
