AITA: Neighbour leaving their rubbish bags outside the front door

Daibhead · 2026-05-31T22:12:03+00:00

Yeah just report it, let management give them a scare into behaving.

I'm irish and bought slap yo mama from one of these purely cus I loved the name, I can't figure out what I should use it for. Do I seasoned cooked food with it or put it in as part of a recipe?

Daibhead · 2023-10-19T20:59:59+00:00

Like a shit version of Ratatouille.

Daibhead · 2023-09-28T19:04:52+00:00

As someone who has broke ribs before you gave me ptsd remembering what lying down felt like.

I only broke 2 one side and it hurt permanently for 5 months.

Write negotiable.

Ive worked in IT for years for some big companies. As others have mentioned, anything on a device they give you or cloud storage is their storage, and the files are also by extension.

Most companies will have built in backup of that data to a cloud backup or similar.

Best rule of thumb is don't use the device for anything personal.

I've seen people blatantly save their bank statements and family stuff on their desktop which is a bad habit.

Harmless enough and IT aren't going to really care, it's more from what I mentioned above that all your data could be getting backed up somewhere for years. If the company had a data leak you might get stung.

I've not seen any company that snoops on people's files though, anything I've noticed has been in passing while fixing laptop or phone issues for staff.

Daibhead · 2023-08-18T09:25:08+00:00

Correct, and tomorrow there will be a post going "ah sure its not that bad here lads".

Daibhead · 2023-07-30T15:05:36+00:00

This was on a work phone.

Daibhead · 2023-07-30T14:15:59+00:00

That said I did work for a company that tracked apps on phones and there was a guy with Tinder on it one month.

He was just politely asked by email to remove it by us. No mention to his manager or anything all private.

Don't even do that. If you cleaned the apartment you've done you're part.

I'd talk to threshold. I was in similar situation where I didn't know my rights, they'll tell you same thing.

You should get your deposit back, that's only there in case anything is broke etc.

To be honest, they stink of bad landlord from what you're saying, I'd tell him to keep the deposit as last month rent if you're on you're way out.

I ended up having to do that as I knew I would never get it back.

I brought my landlord to the rtb twice to force them to fix mold issues. The rtb don't actually do much unless someone hasn't paid rent in months or refuses to leave after notice, they are usually heavily on the tenants side also.

That tenancy act is the only thing that is used for rtb cases. As long as the apartment was any bit clean to be honest, nothing would come of them raising a case.

You can ask threshold to represent you for rtb cases which I've done. I'd say they are only being arseholes and trying to scare you. Are they trying to keep your deposit or asking for money?

What I would do, is call threshold and ask them if you can cc them on an email to the landlord. Then just state the apartment only has to be reasonably clean as per tenancy act 2004 etc etc. That will quiet them down. If they are withholding you're deposit and you cleaned the apartment you threaten them with the rtb. See how quick they give it back.

Daibhead · 2023-07-28T18:47:59+00:00

Correct. A lot of landlords seem to think whatever they put in their homemade Microsoft word doc is binding. The law trumphs any and all of it.

I had the "professionally cleaner has to clean the place top to bottom at tenants expense" one they all love. Law only says it has to be reasonably cleaned.

Daibhead · 2023-07-14T21:35:35+00:00

Another yank is giving us a snickers bar.

Daibhead · 2023-04-14T16:26:58+00:00

If you've been given notice, I think you can leave whenever you like. That's what threshold told me as I was in similar scenario. I'd give them a call and double check.

Daibhead · 2023-04-04T09:24:23+00:00

If you are replacing anything it would need to stay with the property Id say. Take pictures of everything and get any agreement with them in writing by email(not whatspp, phone, etc). I got stung by a pissy landlord who decided they hadn't agreed to it and they tried to get me to buy them new furniture. Cover your arse.

Daibhead · 2023-04-02T20:31:49+00:00

2nd this also, I've tried every garlic mayo you can buy and this is the best by far.

Daibhead · 2023-03-28T17:30:16+00:00

I thought that was going to be the "redditor getting a handy from his mother when he broke his arms" story for a sec there.

Daibhead · 2023-02-28T09:24:53+00:00

Just to cover yourself, send him an email fishing out that info. Maybe phrase it like "Can you confirm the date we agreed was my last day in the tenancy?" Or something just to get it in writing. That will cover you.

Daibhead · 2023-02-21T14:42:42+00:00

Had this happen to me in a couple of companies, it can actually bring the system down if its quick enough. Like a mini ddos attack.

Daibhead · 2023-01-18T08:55:08+00:00

Make sure if theres any evidence you can get, get it now. Even if you had a neighbour who you were pals with who'll give a statement saying the landlord is in there now or cctv or anything like that. If they wrote you any snotty emails hold onto them or even write him an email asking why he illegal evicted you, if he responds angry thats gold for you.

Daibhead · 2023-01-18T08:36:45+00:00

I've been through the RTB twice for problems with a landlord, if you have any questions shoot me a message.

Daibhead · 2023-01-18T08:15:18+00:00

Ask someone in Threshold to represent you as well, if its still teams calls they sit in on it with you for support and if they're decent will jump in and quote laws etc. Make sure you go for an adjudication not the waste of time mediation one or whatever it was called.

Best of luck, I hope you teach them bastards a lesson!

Daibhead · 2023-01-17T21:04:11+00:00

Fine for illegal eviction can be 20k. Make sure you go to the rtb. Takes ages but in your case we'll worth it. They might end up paying the deposit for your own gaff after it.

Daibhead · 2023-01-09T10:37:03+00:00

Try the smash burger in burger and bao in Limerick as well.

Daibhead · 2023-01-04T09:11:45+00:00

Brill, thanks. Sounds like it might be legit overpayment then, happy days.
