Hi,
I received a letter from my Landlord today.
They want my housing
benefit, to be sent directly to them.
But the problem is, that they neven fix things that get broken.
The boiler didn't work for more than one year, the washing-machine
stopped working a couple of years ago, and I had to buy new, since they never
fixed it, and I had to wash my clothes in the bath-tub, and I did it wrong, so I
had to buy new clothes as well.
(They also lie about the garbage-throwing facilities, and say they are
possible to use, 24 hours, but they close at 11 pm., and one have to walk passed
a beer-garden, full of people drinking, so it can also be embarrasing throwing
the garbage, so the bins should be on a public are, like in Leather Lane I
think, and not in the bin-store belonging to a restaurant).
So I have to work as a genator, and fix the bath-room lamp with duct-tape
etc.
Also I am unemployed, and on a strict budget.
So then I don't think it's fair that they should get the whole rent,
when I have to do their genetor-work etc., so I sometimes deduct a bit from the
rent, since they don't do their job with repairs.
Also there is load
music from the discoteque outside, four nights a week.
Also, they write 'I am lead to belive', about that I get housing allowance,
but that's like they are spying on me, I think.
That's not a proper reference, I think.
They go behind my back in a vendetta-way with this letter I got today,
I think.
Because they don't tell you the problems that have been with the
repairs etc.
So their letter doesn't mirror how the tenancy-situation really is, I
think.
So I hope you don't listen to this horrible landlord, but let me have
this bargaining-card with them, so that they don't get even worse.
I wonder if they do this as some kind of hate-crime against me, because
their reference/excuse for attacking me, in their letter to you, wasn't fine, I
think, (so I send a copy of this e-mail to the police).
So I hope you don't listen to their one-sided letter, but continue to
send me the Housing Allowance as usual.
Hope this is alright!
Yours sincerely,
Erik Ribsskog
PS.
I've earlier contaced you about the problems with the garbage-bins,
that they aren't easily accesable.
So these problems, with this landlord, should be known by the Council,
from before.
