    I see your MSE Staff so obviously it must be a spoof post as nobody could be that greedy and selfish to their offspring

    ALL moral dilemmas are posted by MSE staff, that's how it works, they post the dilemmas sent in to them.
    Not true. I posted one once
    I believe the official MMDs are only posted by MSE staff (usually MSE_Kelvin) and go into the MSE weekly newsletter.
    They originate from real people:
    Unfortunately the MSE team can't answer Money Moral Dilemma questions as contributions are emailed in or suggested in person. 

    Looking at your profile you have not started any threads which means you have not personally posted a MMD.

    You may mean that you emailed a MMD for consideration which if it had been accepted, MSE staff would have started the thread.
    So as Zebo says, ALL moral dilemmas are posted by MSE staff.

    There is nothing (I guess) from you starting a thread titled "Money Moral Dilemma xxxxxx" but it won't be an official one.
    How patronising you are. I posted one about 3 years ago about a tenant of mine who disappeared without paying his rent. If I weren't at a concert tonight I would search for it. But I will tomorrow 
    I regret that you found my post patronising.

    However patronising you found it to be, it is true.
    Check out your profile.
    According to your account, it is true that you have posted on 83 threads but have started none.

    Please do find the Money Moral Dilemma that you personally posted 3 years ago.
    I'd be interested to read it and will apologise if I'm wrong.

    I do hope you enjoyed the concert.

    Money Moral Dilemma: My tenants left without cancelling their broadband - should I keep using it? — MoneySavingExpert Forum

    Apology accepted and the concert was fabulous thank you
    I said I'd apologise if I'm wrong.
    I'm not wrong.

    You are wrong.
    You have misunderstood (and taken offence where none was intended or made) the point that Zebo and I made.

    You did not post a MMD.

    If you look at the original post in the thread you linked to it was not posted by you.
    It was posted by MSE_Kelvin.

    This week's MoneySaver who wants advice asks...

    I'm a landlord and recently moved into one of my flats that was previously let to tenants that left without paying several months' rent. I discovered they hadn't cancelled the broadband, so I've been getting it for nothing. Given they owe me money and seemingly don't check their bank accounts, do I really have to contact them about cancelling it - or should I just keep using it?

    Unfortunately the MSE team can't always answer money moral dilemma questions as contributions are often emailed in or suggested in person. They are intended to be a point of debate and discussed at face value. 

    😲 If you haven’t already, join the forum to reply.
    🙄 Got a Money Moral Dilemma of your own? Suggest an MMD.


    You are anonymous as far as that thread goes.

    Again, all MMDs are posted by MSE staff.

    You submitted a suggestion for an MMD and it was posted by MSE_Kelvin.

    Which is what I said here:

    I suggest you put the shovel down, accept that you are wrong and move on.
