The difference possibility being that they are open to the suggestion of airbnb for home owners not tenants.
I would have thought no MP will want to get involved in something that actively encourages the breach of lease conditions and therefore allows offending tenants to remainin S 38 T 2 F 50

I was just unsure if I can go a different route to contact the boss of the Landlord company as an individual property manager can do something which a diplomatic appeal to the boss may change; it would be important to check that leadership are in agreement with the current approach of the property manager.
There is a Section 33 (Preventing retaliatory eviction) in the Deregulation Act 2015 - I am unsure if I have any grounds for a re-think, on the basis that it may be construed as retaliative action for complaining about the lift service in writing to the property manager. If they have the 2m break clause in the contract I assume this has no weight?anyadvice4me wrote: »I have not done anything wrong.

None of this applies. I'm sorry. It doesn't. Wait for court papers and go from there.0 -
Yes you have. You allowed someone else into the flat who broke the terms of the rental agreement - that's YOUR fault. You seem like a person who is unable or unwilling to take any personal responsiblilty. Stop playing victim.
There's a difference between finding out and partaking in it.
If the LL is free to issue a S21 based on the break clause at anytime then they don't need a reason. If they do provide a reason (in this case the Airbnb issue) - then does that provide any defendable position against the action if I had no involvement with it?0 -

FGS NO!
How are you not getting this?!
It could've been because you wore a red scarf, or because you opened the door at 5.59pm, and not 6.01pm. Or because the landlord just felt like it.0 -
There was no lift in the building for 3months late last year (the flat is on the top floor of the building) - it was hard for my partner to climb the stairs, so he Airbnb'ed it to help pay for things while he was not there and to stop it being empty (there had been a burglary a couple of years ago in a flat downstairs). I had complained to the Landlord about the Lift access and they said at that time I could leave if I did not like it. I have a feeling they may be relating now.
Are you really believing that this is a reasonable excuse? Your partner is not on the lease, he has no right of his own to be there. He has no right to complain that the lack of a lift was an inconvenience to him, let alone that it a valid reason for deciding to use airbnb.
In any case, you in your first post that he has done on 'occasions' so not just that time. You make the choice to give your partner keys to the place, you are responsible for his actions.
Why you would think of yourself as a victim or that you should have any rights not to be evicted is beyond belief. It's time to accept the inevitable.0 -

You are the tenant who has allowed this to happen, you are 100% in the wrong. How on earth can you not understand this, it must be a wind up.It's nothing , not nothink.0 -
Wind up, calling it"It is prudent when shopping for something important, not to limit yourself to Pound land/Estate Agents"

As far as the LL is concerned your at fault since your name is on the agreement, just accept it and move on.
Have you bollocked the bf/partmer for this ?

This thread is either a wind-up, or the OP will only be satisfied by being told what he wants to hear.

You have abused your position with the landlord, but now want to paint them as being in the wrong?
At this point I hope that you end up on the street. Have you no shame?0
