  1. I don't want to give my money to a drug dealer. You wouldn't be saying this if he was a sex offender because he would be placed on a register which effectively destroys his life even if it was a false allegation. Yet, drug dealers who hand out dangerous drugs even to children are okay to be in jail yet have a steady income so that they get straight back to it when they've done their time. There ought to be a DBS type check for lettings and sales too. The lettings and real estate sector is the least regulated one and that's precisely why drugs dealera invest in property. I don't plan to "campaign" against the lettings agency but I will definitely air my thoughts regarding this property online. Politics aside, it's my money and it's my right to know where it's going. Thanks for all the sensible opinions and views
  2. Not LL, the lettings agency. Surely trust pilot exists for a reason
  3. The lettings agency have sent the following reply: "Your tenancy and deposit are completely unaffected by this. We would never have allowed the property to be let if there were potential repercussions on the tenant. We are under no obligation to disclose unrelated details upon viewing, hence why this was never mentioned. The property owner has followed the correct procedure by handing Power of Attorney to his mother, whom (Sic) is the legal landlord for the property. As we fully manage the property and thus the tenancy, this was not mentioned to you as you are not privy to any information that is not related to your tenancy. " This is confusing to me because the tenancy agreement I had signed was in the name of the son who is now in prison convicted of dealing drugs. My payments have been to the lettings agency, BUT I do feel scammed in a way since (technically) the money goes indirectly to a convicted drug dealer. What kind of law is this that will not disclose such facts to a potential tenant/buyer?! I would not be ranting as much if the tenancy had been in his mother's name or the lettings agency's name. I have a good mind to get this fact (along with details of the address) out on social media tik tok, insta, fb etc so that future tenants aren't giving their hard earned money to a drug dealer!
  4. As I'd mentoioned in my original post, I paid upfront for 6 months till the end of June 2024. I just dont feel secure staying here now knowing that he is in prison for drug offences and also concerned that I may lose my deposit.
  5. I emailed them just now and I have to say that never have I ever received a quicker reply than to this email! Haha Immediate reply came in asking me what change in circs I am referring to. (I had worded the email rather carefully stating that "it has come to my attention that the landlord's circs have changed drastically.....etc...how it affects my tenancy....can i end tenancy sooner than june etc) They have also stated that tenancy cannot be terminated sooner than June. At the same time, I have just been told by the local newsagents (the ladies at work, that is) that landlord has been in prison for months BEFORE my tenancy was renewed last december!
  6. My current tenancy agreement runs out at the end of June 2024. I have been informed that my landlord has been jailed in a large scale drugs bust in this region. (No, I was not aware of this when I entered into the tenancy) The lettings agency have not mentioned anything to me about this fact, but I was wondering if I have grounds to end tenancy sooner than June, since I am very concerned about the law freezing the landlord's assets (including my depoisit!). Also, due to poor credit, I was required to pay 6 months' rent up front if I wanted to renew the contract in December 2023. I am considering moving out sooner and claiming back the remaining rent. CAn anyone advice me of my rights/options in this situation?
  7. Yes they had used the card on a previous occasion. I couldn't find those cancellation terms on the website. Thank you.
  8. TRACE have sent this to the correct address. I will complete the SAR and post it to NCP.
  9. I made an online booking (£1.50 paid on the app) for a session at this spa but was unable to attend. Unfortunately, I couldn't ring and reschedule/cancel. They tried to charge my card for £50 without any approval from me. Luckily, it was my backup account which I mostly always keep empty. T&C's on the booking email make no mention of my consent for them to take out money from my card. I'm more than slightly annoyed by this, and wondered if this falls within what is considered legal. Thoughts, please?
  10. Thank you, FTMDave. I have, indeed, updated with DVLA just last month! I will respond and get details of the offence before I make any payments (Sorry, dx, it was just a quick question before I respond to TRACE)
  11. Actually, I don't need a response anymore since Samsung has given me a satisfactory resolution. I am, of course, eternally grateful for the responses and the guidance from all in this forum.
  12. Phone was bought in January 2023. Sorry but I couldn't access the website. SAMSUNG have not replaced the screen but they have somehow fixed it so that it looks like a new screen!
  13. Received this in the post this morning. Never had anything from National CAr Parks Limited. If I make contact with TRACE, would it be counted as admission of the parking offence? trace debt recovery page 1 feb 2024.pdf
