    I think it HAS to be EAGERLEANER for her MAMMOTH thread which is

    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?p=5359866#post5359866

    in the property forum and which has had 117,101 viewings and is 87 pages long !!!!!!!

    she has spent the last year trying to get her deposit back from a wicked landlady and she succeeded this week in court !!!!!

    SOOOOOOOOOOOOO many tenants and landlords have learnt SO much from this thread, and this young woman's grit, determination, guts, honesty and even in the most trying of circumstances, her honourable sense of fair play just shone thru this whole thread. Throughout the thread, we have watched her grow from a frightened, baffled, unconfident employee to a woman with determination who is now running her own business !!!!

    if you have 3-4 hours to read the thread, it is an utttttttter inspiration

    PLEEEEEEEEASE mods - please take a look - she REALLY really deserves recognition.

    i wholeheartedly second clutton's nomination of eagerlearner's thread. it really is a victory for the consumer in this case. i feel the advice offered on the thread is testament to the communtiy at MSE, and although the thread was included in the email, i think it would be fitting for EL to be awarded the £50 as the result of her brave battle and perseverance is a true shining example of good ol' honest consumer revenge :T




    plus she needs a new DVD player and she's skint after spending the fruits of her labour on lobster and vino :D

    Cheers

    I'd also like to nominate EagerLearner's thread - an inspirational thread of someone determined to get what was rightfully hers and a great example of how the MSE community can help.

    Mark.

    It has to be Eagerlearner, after all 50 GBP would be only about a pound a week for all her efforts in the saga of claiming back a tenancy deposit.
