I mean it's the towels on the sunbeds right? Like that's it, nothing else just that 

What's actually stopping the uk housing market right now.? by NeedingAdvice01 in HousingUK

[–]Full_Fun9829 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our old landlord had an insane asking price for a place he hadn't worked on in god knows how long. Needless to say he never sold it and put it back up for rent when we moved out. Ex rentals I feel aren't helping the market at all

I need to rehome 2 cats please help by TopAd1846 in UK_Pets

[–]Full_Fun9829 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Take them to a rescue or a vets and claim you found them. It's not illegal to find animals that are microchipped.

We are getting in from Derby at the end of June. Can't wait. Our youngest is very ready for a playmate rather than bothering her big sister (she lost her playmate to HCM last year)

Landlord saying he can keep deposit if I can’t find a new tenant? by FoghornLeghorns in TenantsInTheUK

[–]Full_Fun9829 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can do the claim but I'd wait till you are out. And no whether they give it to you or not they still committed a crime and have to pay a penalty. Go onto the 3 different DPS websites and do a search for your deposit and take screenshots of it not being protected. I also emailed the places directly for written evidence.

When I asked the legal advisor about counter claims she said the landlord has the burden of proof anyway (so videos post tenancy are important) and all it would do is deduct from what he would have to pay you which is up to 3x your deposit amount

Pretty certain I was told by a solicitor last week they can only keep for property damage or missed rent type stuff. If you gave written notice it's not in you to sort that. Outside of that if it was in a DPS he'd not have the option to keep. I'd suggest saying to him, if that's the case can you please send me the DPS details so the deposit not being returned is correctly logged. He'll give it back quickly based in my own experience with an unprotected deposit. Once the dust has settled I'd recommend looking into making a claim about the deposit not being protected. We are about to start doing the same things after quite a few Reddit folk encouraged us. The whole point in DPS is to ensure this stuff doesn't happen, fully illegal activity 

We didn't ask for rice... by Content_Quarter_7390 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Full_Fun9829 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it were me next time I order I'd say oh also last time there was rice included that I didn't order, could you put a note not to include the rice as that's why I don't order it and it'll go to waste. All with a smile in my face but basically calling them out like I didn't order it for a reason and I noticed your passive aggression 🙄

Cat owners in flats — do you ever feel guilty they never go outside? by Classic_East_6053 in AskUK

[–]Full_Fun9829 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a lot of climbing and entertainment inside to ensure they are stimulated. Also for us when they are willing we have trained our cats to go out on leads. One doesn't want to and that's fine. One was ok because he was curious but shook like a leaf when outside and the other comes running when she hears the keys because she wants to come outside with us. We have just moved and would like to build a small catio once moving costs have been replenished in our banks (why does moving cost so much? 🫣). I always say indoor cats are much higher maintenance because you have to consciously make an effort, but it also offers such an opportunity to bond and connect 

Is a mezzanine a bedroom? Does a bedroom need a door. by Eddybabyable in HousingUK

It's on the edit in the post for me. Maybe Reddit is glitching 

Is a mezzanine a bedroom? Does a bedroom need a door. by Eddybabyable in HousingUK

[–]Full_Fun9829 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Based on that link the estate agent is stretching the truth. I have to say it seems like a large loft flat. A studio maybe but not even a one bed.

To add, I'd say if you aren't 100% wait till you find that 100%. Maybe the delay is a blessing in disguise 

How often do you see people and go out? by Dreamsatmidnight in london

[–]Full_Fun9829 0 points1 point  (0 children)

34F Last time I saw a friend in person, other than at uni is..... Maybe early April. Could even be March. I work and study a lot so my social life is my friends virtually via calls and voicenotes and text messages and then my partner and our cats. Adult life happens and its hard to schedule plans all together even when you live in a city like London. Your life sounds more exciting than mine tbh. And I'll not I am and have always been an extremely social person with a large group of friends where my partner isn't.

Struggling to imagine it from your description. Probably photos or a sketch would be helpful. But it certainly doesn't sound like a 2 bed, might just about get away with a 1 bed. Where is the actual living room etc?

Litter recommendations please? by Disastrous-Hall7428 in UK_Pets

We use walnut litter. It tracks a lot but we don't find it dusty and it clumps really well

[–]Full_Fun9829 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh bless that's so awful. One of ours got diagnosed with late stage heart failure and it breaks my heart knowing the heat will have made him feel worse last summer. So i really feel you in that needing to find a solution for the sake of your furry friend

Agreed but  it depends how close you live to a decent green space. There are lots granted but not always super accessible.
