Former landlord harassment

Just block him and make your account private1

If he genuinely believes you owe him money, then the correct route is to issue a small claim through the courts. You then defend it, saying why you think you don't. The court decides.
Giving you gip through FB is not the sign of sensible business practices... WHATEVER the rights and wrongs.3 -
Ignore him. Harassment is illegal and what does he actually think he will achieve. He’ll just look like a vindictive person, if you are not doing anything wring in your new place then contacting your new LL will achieve nothingconfused127 said:I don't have him as a friend but he's threatening to contact my employer new landlord all that kind of thing so trying to keep things calm1 -

How were you told pets were allowed ?confused127 said:I was told pets allowed later told no pets so they'd wanted me out
Wad it verbal ?
I would have got this in writing but whats done is done.1 -
If he was serious, he'd either a) use the deposit protection scheme to reclaim money from your deposit or b) go to small claims court, which does not cost him that much.
If you are paying rent, your new landlord will not care. Your boss will not care about letters from madmen.2021 GC £1365.71/ £24001 -
