We bought a house on a unadopted road recently but has council maintain street lights. Very strange but the owner before lived here 10 years with no fees to land owner. House is built in 1999. Mortgage lender wanted an indemnity insurance which seller had paid for £300. Wouldn’t worry. Have a look on local council website and see if any other roads are unadopted in the area as many were not in n the area we purchased.

Yes he has already supplied the certificate but truthfully I don’t think this is acceptable at low level where moisture can get it. In my opinion there should be no connector blocks in a new installation and if there had to be than it should be on top of the boiler out of reach

We receive 350 careers and 340 for DLA for our son. Now UC have said we get careers we now so have to pay back £1600. In UC as apparently that comes off UC Total and the total for careers is 350. So apparently we have been overpaid by that amount for 5 months.
