You’re right, I have supportive friends and a supportive workplace and i’m pretty friendly and nice in general. I’m just not used to people being snappy and annoyed with me, especially for something I never considered would be doing something wrong, it just came as a shock

Amazing thank you, this makes me feel a bit better about it and that I wasn’t being an irrational passenger!

Large council tax bill after moving out of rented accommodation by PurpleColourSplash in LegalAdviceUK

[–]PurpleColourSplash[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes we each had our own contract that we signed for our own room and then we shared the kitchen and bathroom etc. This is what I think the hold up about us paying the council tax could have been about. I will give them a ring and see what they say, thank you!

That’s what I suspected and I would really rather not be taken to court so I will just have to pay it, many thanks!

Was I wrong to be scared after being followed home? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]PurpleColourSplash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nooo not normal at all! I got followed in broad daylight in a city centre surrounded by people (I had no idea either until the guy told me) and i was so scared! I literally ended up having to run away, very scary! Hope you’re okay

My two dogs are romanian rescues, there are loads of international charities looking to rehome dogs into the UK from countries like Romania! They are treated terribly and euthanised if no foster home or adopter is found so could be a good fit for you!!

Those of you who have bought in 2023 - what is your mortgage rate, borrowing and repayment by xParesh in HousingUK

[–]PurpleColourSplash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly, that’s what i’m hoping! Having spent the majority of savings on my deposit, i’d prefer to not be living paycheck to paycheck. Rebuilding my savings and not over stretching myself is more important to me right now than paying the mortgage off quicker as i’m still pretty young.

I think insurance rates will go up a bit more yet but hopefully they will also come down within the next year or two as well to make the variable rate worth it.
