I have not made any payments, but they say they have written to me at my old address three years ago.

Hi Thanks for the advice, I will write to them, today he has called 10 times and left two four minute messages on my voicemail.

A debt company has been phoning me on my mobile every day, they are chasing a Barclaycard debt from 2000 the guy is one of those smarmy types who always has an anwser and be littles you. Is there any way of stopping these calls (it is my business mobile so I have to answer, I am a self empolyed taxi driver)

Thanks guys for all your help, we have agreed with the landlord to another six months at the existing rent.

The depositwas paid on the first AST in Aug o7 and is in The Deposit protection service. Each time we signed a new six month AST the deposit was not changed.

We asked the landlords agent what was happening about the new AST on 22nd July as we had heard nothing, he telephoned on 24th July to say that the landlord want to increase the rent by £100

We sent an e-mail on 27th saying we would take another AST but only at the existing rent.

We have not had a response to that offer, when we checked our paper work we found the NRP was dated and signed prior to the starting date of the AST

Sorry if this is confusing, but i have had 4 section 21s as I have had four fixed term AST. The current notice is dated and issued on 16th Feb 2009 We started our new fixed term AST on the 17th Feb 2009 I am trying to find out if this proceedure is correct

We have been in the property since 17th August 2007 when we paid a deposit, every six months the agent signs us up to a new six month fixed term AST and at that time we sign a notice requiring possession. This notice was dated 16th feb expire 16th Aug the AST starts on 17th feb and ends on 17th Aug.

We are trying to find out if the notice is correctly issued.

Our landlords agent made us sign a Notice Requiring Possession when we took our AST It was for six months starting on the 17th Feb 09 although we signed the agreement on the 31st jan 09

The NRP was dated 16th Feb one day before our fixed term commenced, the landlord has increased the rent and only notified us less than four weeks before the end of the agreement 17th Aug.

Do we have any rights under section 21 as the NRP was signed and dated prior to the fixed term commenced
