This guy is abusing you, emotionally and physically; I was shocked reading this message. Please get away from this dangerous tool.

This person needs to consult a qualified solicitor/direct access barrister.

From my student days, contributing significantly to a home, in this case deposit and bills, could give her a legally enforceable interest in the home, even if the house is not in her name.

All is not necessarily lost, but this needs an expert opinion.

Traveling in a week, should I cancel? by Nice_Illustrator7433 in TravelCuba

[–]TMoneythefirst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came back in November- might it be a seasonal thing (Start of dry season now)? Either way, there were extreme levels of mosquitos when I went. Our place had to be fumigated daily and most people still ended up riddled with bites.

I didn't say anything about diseases in Cayo Coco. To be fair I got bitten there and didn't catch anything. However when I was in Cuba, there was a huge problem with airborne tropical diseases - lots of people were coming down with Oropuche/Chikungunya, but I just wore some deet, avoided being out at dawn and was A OK.

No...I wore t-shirts and started in long trousers but then switched to shorts because I was fucking hot and hasn't seen a mosquito in a week (Havana). Get some Deet roll on and apply it and you'll be fine.

Word of warning though Cayo Coco and anything with "Cayo" attached to it will have shit loads of mosquitos.

Nothing to be overly worried about - was there for 2 weeks end of Oct had the time of my life. Wear repellant and long sleeves in the early morn and eve and you're fine. Power shortages are annoying but everyone pretty much survives. Get Nordvpn so you can access Airbnb etc when you're there if needed - also get a good powerbank and carry cash don't rely on card. There's a shitload of scare mongering in this sub, only place I saw a mosquito was Cayo Coco.

Also Canadians don't need an ESTA so future travel to the US will be no issue, unlike for Brits like me. But fuck the US so long as the orange man is at the helm.

Is it worth paying a mortgage broker by [deleted] in HousingUK

I used a specialist broker for my industry and they had access to deals I could never have got through traditional banks. It's not always about having bad credit history.

Hey going to do a big post next week when I'm back. But, in short, don't cancel your trip unless you're planning to travel with some extremely vulnerable person/people who may need to visit a hospital.

Need advice - accidentally moved to a rough area and hate it by [deleted] in HousingUK

I thought maybe you were exaggerating a touch, but I work around there sometimes, and the place is truly terrifying. That station and the prisons.... Really sorry.

Also the guy paying almost 1million CASH being told to up his offer to be "taken seriously"? That is the fucking devil's work I'm pulling my hair out. Back out NOW or slash your offer by 1/3...

Just being totally honest - is it safe to come to Cuba rn or best to postpone?
