She didn't register my deposit to start with..
Secondly this morning i was with a lawyer about this issue and the woman came to the house and start moving my properties outside and the lawyer instructed me to call police immediately which I did..
They started CAD and ask me to start coming back home that police is coming.
Only for me to get a call few minutes later that the police won't be coming again as this is a civill matter & dispute with my landlord. Am still trying to get hold of a legal person who know how to handle this sort of things.

Yesterday I told the landlord to fix the door and give me the keys and I will pay her.
And this woman declined and said am a stupid person and who do i think I am.

The lawyer also instructed me to call shelter emergency number and report this.

Ralphlauren:


What did the police say?

Have you had a call or email response from the council regarding your complaint?

Have you contacted the charity, shelter?

She's obviously operating an illegal HMO hence why she's pretending to live in the property with her family.

I'll suggest you don't pay her the rent or pack out until she returns the door back to its hinges.

Do you know if she registered your deposit with an approved deposit scheme?

This is why I just dey laugh when people were really taking time out to advise her that day. Someone who already knew what she was going to do.

Regardless, we still have to say the right thing. For her to post it here meant that she had some element of doubt/fear. But with the update, I want to believe she defeated her doubt/fear and advanced.

Otilo!

Bro am not sure you understand.
Even yesterday i told her to come and fix my door and give me the house keys that I will pay her once did is done.
And this woman in front of me told me that am stupid and who do I think I am to tell her that..

The police just don't want to get involved but they are asking me to find a way to involve them if she break any criminal laws then that's where they can start to build up a case against her.

Viruses:


This is what I was trying to say, but it seems the guy has taken it upon himself to teach the landlord a lesson. I would leave the fight for another person except I get strength for reserve.

If you know houses that have been reposesed because of tenants refusing to pay you go approach this issue differently.

Tell them you feel afraid for your life due to her threats.

Bros, you'd have to leave the alpha male orientation and call the police telling them you feel threatened and also she is using abusive words with actions and shivering.

Why haven't you paid her? Your initial post noted a few days late and till date you are yet to pay her!

You have established how horrible she is, but I'd suggest you just pay her and see how things progress. Was she this horrible before or after you delayed on your rent?

Two wrongs can never make a right!!!

Just out of curiosity, what’s the essence of getting the biometric card without a passport? Is it so the years will start counting for the child? The child will still need a passport to leave the country or can they travel on just a biometric card?

Brp is only a legal document which contains the duration of her visa, presentable at schools, hospital, etc as proof of residence

I already told her to fix my door and i will send her the money but she refused.

Please who know how i can go with the deposit scheme report claim please..

I have decided to go ahead and pay her, but I will pursue the deposit scheme option as it seems like dealing with civil issueslike this is kinda complicated.

Seniors in the building, I greet una.

I recently got an interview invite for a civil service role (EO, Finance officer).

For those who have had the experience, what should I expect? What areas am I going to be accessed on? What are the likely questions?

I will appreciate your inputs please.

Thanks

In as much as I do not want to accept that myself and family migrating to the UK made us poorer. Our savings and bank account clearly indicates that we are. We are a family of 4 who moved here as skilled workers. All we have been doing is paying visa and ilr fees. Sadly, after all these all you keep hearing in the news is how immigrants have come to take their missing pie. There you have me thinking, hang on you are clearly broke and we have come to help. We are just counting down to naturalisation and another japa. Average Uk household expected to be poorer by £1900 by 2025.

Whats the hurry for the naira to GBP? I think Ohentpay allows you register without BRP; lemonade is faster than them though

NI may be a major requirement but sometimes they ask for BRP too; sometimes share code

Best to have everything handy

Thanks for your advice. I really appreciate this. However, I am surprised that more than 2 week after my arrival, the BRP is not out yet. Have been waiting for the email endlessly.

Is that how slow the system is or am I being so much in a hurry? I need to start work. I need to start my life here... Looks as if I'm stagnant here.

The BRP will typically be at the PO before you come

Not sure what the issue is. Other people may be able to come up with a solution smiley

Seniors in the house please I need an advice. I was planning to get a mortgage next year. But the recent policies they are about to make is kinda scary. Skilled workers will not be allowed to come in with partners. Citizens has to start working, no more benefits etc.

Let me not bore you. So my plan is getting a mortgage, rent it out and move to the USA. Can that work? Is it reasonable?

My opinion though, if the employee shows much competence this might not be an issue.

That was my initial question when he first made the complaint. You owed your LL rent and had the guts to sublet. Coming here to play the victim card. Sickening. The worse is that other people here didn't condemn him. Total BS!! Until your house owner's mortgage gets repossessed. No one is seeing the anger of the house owner.

Try your bank (moderate interest rate) or search for payday loans online (slightly higher interest)

There are always two sides to any story/situation/quarrel... That rent, I want to believe, goes towards mortage payment, and like you said, that LL may be seriously chased up and under pressure!

I asked him if his LL was this terrible before or after he owed her rent, he surgically shyed away from answering that question.

My perception of his story isn't adding up.

That's how it's used to be. Even my decision letter said I should pick it 10 days max after arrival. I went to the Post Office 4 days after arrival yet no BRP. They collected my number and promised to call when the BRP is delivered. Call I nor see, BRP I nor see. My tired is tired walahi.

Did you sign anything that states you are responsible for repairs after moving out?
The contract It says if they are not satisfied with the repairs I made in the house, they should give me 7 days notice to fix it,and if I don’t fix it after the days notice then they have the right to fix it and charge the cost to me but they didn’t give me the 7 days notice,they went ahead to fix it and now they are charging me
