Instead of being defensive to every response you dislike, why not clarify he position so that we can offer relevant responses?
See earlier questions.
However, to pre-empt the answer to one of those questions:
* if you have a single 'joint & several' contract with the other occupants, then if the landlord informs one joint tenant (of a planned visit or whatever), then legally he has informed you all. Any failure by the joint tenants to communicate between themselves is not his fault.
* if you each have individual contracts, and this is an HMO, then the landlord does not need to inform any of you if he (or his contractors) plan to access the 'common parts' (ie shared areas like kitchen, garden etc)0 -
Most comments I received were keyboard warriors who want to tell people they are wrong, that is what this forum is made up of, people who just want to criticise people's opinions/thoughts/situations instead of helping.0

We can all do a bit of Googling and get things wrong. Some may even conclude that trespass is a criminal offence, and that a 'right to quiet enjoyment' is easily defended.0

Until you actually tell us what sort of tenancy you have it's impossible for anyone to help, as we're all just guessing.
Please answer the questions that you've been asked.0 -
Even if people are renting a room in a house.....say they have a day off, chilling in their garden in their speedos, listening to some classical music in the sunshine, enjoying a cocktail.......
A guy with a chainsaw appears, who has let himself through the gate into the garden and starts chopping down a tree for the next 5 hours.
No notice is needed to be given to the tenants about this? That's just ridiculous.
Tenants don't know if the chainsaw guy is trespassing, tenants do not have the opportunity to pre-arrange their day to avoid the noise, ie. by instead going to the beach.
It's harassment. If you have no prior warning you don't know who is going to be coming into the house at any moment or if they are friend or foe.
A tiler enters the house and is here to re-tile the bathroom. You had no prior warning of this. You wake up needing to take a shower before heading to work or an interview. You cannot access the shower as the tiler is in the middle of his work.
Seriously....... no prior warning from the landlord...... you have got to be joking. This is harassment. I could have woken up earlier to have my shower if I had prior warning. Now I have to go to work stinking of B.O.
Really....... this is acceptable? no notice whatsoever? landlord can send round who she wants, when she wants, with no notice?
You've already said in a previous post the landlord is giving notice to some of the tenants so the points you made above are irrelevant.
Like I said if you rent the entire house she only has to give notice to one of the tenants who can then tell everyone else.
You even said every other person in the house is informed of the work so it sounds like none of them are telling you?.
So the landlord doesn't want to talk to you and your housemates don't want to talk to you?.0 -
and so far all your comments have refused to answer straight questions which would give you straight answers. Stop messing around, do you want a correct answer or not?Most comments I received were keyboard warriors who want to tell people they are wrong, that is what this forum is made up of, people who just want to criticise people's opinions/thoughts/situations instead of helping.0 -
