Meenzer 15524 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Might be an idea to remove the Pussy Wagon sticker. Nah, in Brighton that just gets you a bunch of old bald men asking you about cat grooming techniques. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meenzer 15524 Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 God I hate renting. (Don't start - I know I could move out of London, but we're not ready yet. ) Â Anyway, the landlords visited a couple of months ago - they're a lovely retired couple who've moved down to Devon and kept their place in the big bad city to rent out while they're paying off their mortgage. We had a nice chat and a cup of tea, and agreed that when the lease is up in mid-December, we'll extend for a whole 24 months - we're happy, they're happy, and it means not having to get the letting agency involved any more than is necessary. We've chatted to them on the phone a couple of times since, and yesterday the agency called up to arrange a pre-renewal inspection of the property for a week on Monday, all as it should be. Â Then this morning I get this e-mail, from a "Team Leader" at the agency (the grammar is all his): Â "Dear ...Your tenancy is due to expire on the 15/12/2013 can you let me know if you are wishing to renew your contractThe landlord is keen to get this done, if the tenancy is not renewed your landlord will be in a position to serve notice for you to vacate or increase the rent via a section 13 noticeLook forward to hearing from youKind regards" Â :pullhair: Â Now I know it's just a generic mail from someone who's had a "one month till renewal!" message pop up in his scheduler and who obviously hasn't been informed that the renewal process is already underway - the agency in question is particularly legendary for one hand not knowing what the other is doing - but the wording, the threats and, frankly, the crapness of it all really annoy me. I'm trying very hard not to reply with a serious dose of sarcasm simply because I know it'll be taken literally. But if this is the calibre of their Team Leaders... gaaaargh.

Meenzer 15524 Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 One out of two ain't bad. Although I presume there was nowt stopping you from coming straight back again... Â My mam is the queen of the complaint letter. She's got time and she'll let nowt go. My logic is I could be earning money in the time it takes me to craft a suitably biting comeback, but maybe it's better for the soul to do the latter. Â Anyway, I bit my tongue and replied civilly. The fella pleaded ignorance and still doesn't know how to use full stops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 30598 Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Nah, it was to do with construction work at our hotel that they didn't advise us of despite me telling them a month beforehand what has happening.
