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.

    Ahh well the kids will be cold then, it's down to you matey! :rotfl:

    I know, right?

    Even IF the landlord was legally obliged to come round and try a few simple quick fixes (or pay someone to do it) it beggars belief that someone would sit in a freezing cold house for days "on principle" rather than trying a few things themselves.

    Takes all sorts I guess.

    Exactly. I wonder how much time has been spent 'shivering' in front of the TV or spent playing on their phone the last few days?

    You may as well buy a house and have all the responsibilities of being a property owner

    If you rent then you don’t have any of these worries and anything that needs work or repair should be done ASAP


    Nope, the only place you'll get that level of service is a hotel.
