Leeds – October 31, 2023
Moved into my flat in the summer. Everything was hunky dory, dry and sunny. Come winter it’s damp and covered in mould. COVERED. Four months of complaining to the landlord, nothing has been done.
Manchester – October 31, 2023
My landlord is raising the rent by a massive 22% (£300 per month). I can’t afford it, and when I told him, he said I should move out. I’ve been here for four years.
London – October 23, 2023
Moved between countries, signed a long-term lease for a flat in London, two months in the landlord notified us he intends to sell the property, and forced us out the next month.
London – October 16, 2023
Landlord tried to DOUBLE the rent from £2000 to £4000. Said they need to redo the kitchen floor which was already promised to us before moving in
London – October 10, 2023
I was living in an 8 bed house in London. When I moved in told 3 bathrooms, when I moved in was just the one plumbed in, lovely bathrooms in the basement, nicely tiled etc, good looking showers, never got plumbed in. Lived there 4 years. Begrudged knowing the queue for the shower could have been a 1/3 of the time every morning
London – October 10, 2023
Didn’t know it could rain inside, water coming through lights into bathroom, took 6 months for landlord to finally get round to getting a builder in to fix.
Gravesend – October 10, 2023
Living in Kent and I think we changed house half a dozen times in 12 months.
Recently moved to a flat with single glazed windows and the only electric heating. Still our fault for the mould tho
Camden, London – October 10, 2023
Years ago, I lived with a flatmate who’d get blind drunk most nights. This Amy Winehouse wannabe would stumble home drunk, eat my food and call us all c*unts.
In the morning, she’d have her tail between her legs…then rinse and repeat.
She also had the nerve to asked me to cover her share of bills.
Harrogate – October 10, 2023
Today, 61 days after moving out, we finally got the deposit back from the flat we rented for 5 years and they want
– £7 for dust on the lampshade
– £3 dust on one skirting
– £5 cleaning door knobs
Bristol – October 10, 2023
Landlord tried to evict me after asking for a gas safety certificate and working smoke alarm.
Anonymous renting horror stories from tenants in the UK. We might regret this, but at the same time give us what you’ve got.
