PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

Tenant legs it

Go to the Cambridge University Accommodation Service in Tennis Court Road. They will be able to give you clear and pertinent advice. They should also be able to suggest a pro bono solicitor for advice. Sadly, they don't work weekends.
Assuming the lodger/tenant was registered at a college, wander in to the Porters' Lodge and ask who the Senior Tutor is there, and write to them. They will most certainly have a current address for your ex tenant, and will forward mail accordingly. They do not like members of college accruing debts in Cambridge, they really do not like it at all!
There's only one large research group with business links in Cambridge and Kent that I know of, and I know it really rather well... There will, of course, be many smaller ones. I'm involved in it in a small way, I live in Kent half the year, I teach in Cambridge, and I'm also a landlord to students in Cambridge, although I know I'm not your landlord!
Ofcourse don't expect the college to tell the op the new address as that would breach DPA0 -
Not necessarily, Guest, as students often leave their addresses at the plodge for friends, colleagues and the like, left in an open address book.0
