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.
London – October 10, 2023
Boiler broke one winter. After 4 days with no heat or hot water, asked the landlord what was going on and he said he EMAILED the plumber he likes to use and was waiting for a reply.
London – October 10, 2023
Flatmate was an adamant and vocal vegan. She would throw out any kitchenware that touched meat (and she wouldn’t do it quietly). Saying that, she had a down duvet, wore leather jackets and shoes and spent all weekend doing coke. Would not recommend.
Anonymous renting horror stories from tenants in the UK. We might regret this, but at the same time give us what you’ve got.
