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.

Not much use if you need to go out.x34cha said:
At the minute I've been leaving my key in the door so they can't open it, it has worked against one attempt for them to get in so not sure if it's worth getting a new lock.giraffe69 said:I'm surprised you haven't been down to Homebase or wherever to buy a replacement lock yet. That has to be the first step to reducing your anxiety. You should keep the old lock and you can change it back when you do leave. Nothing illegal about that and urgent if you fear break in by whoever.3 -
It's only £3. But in a sensible country like Scotland you can look up who is registered landlord for any property , for free. Name and address. Plus check on early dispute cases involving landlords or agents: For free, all online.
Come on England, catch up! (Bleedin' Bozo the clown.... the usual problem)

People are giving you solid advice to get your locks changed why don’t you do that if you suffer from such an anxiety! Leaving your key in the door wouldn’t take long for someone to figure out how to get it out.0
