Roughest one yet?

I had sympathy for the dad...useless son. I wouldn't allow people in my home tramping around with boots, they would have to remove them. biggrin

Brian was lovely eh. He had some balls on him, although I get the impression one of the lads isn't exactly speedy neither are particularly small and I'm not sure I'd want to be telling them I was going to hurt them if they didn't leave!

It's nice to see genuine people on this show from time to time, the chap with the cats and house which was damp really deserved that 2nd chance and it's good how he stuck to his agreement smile

It's a bit rough that cases can be escalated to high court without them being advised.

No it isn't, many debtors use the county courts as a stalling tactic and delay for as long as possible, a judge still makes a decision in the high court on whether or not to grant the order after considering the evidence, so could knock it back if so minded.

I don't understand how you can just live rent free in a property and when you get evicted just leave without any charge, its theft plain and simple

If a person has fk all there's no point chasing them, although you could take those who do have money to court for the losses. I'm not sure how a high court order would play on a customers credit rating either making it harder for them to get a tenancy agreement in the future. Perhaps someone on here with more knowledge on the subject could enlighten me?

Yup, Harsh but using a sick child as a way to avoid paying your rent or being evicted?
Maybe the landlord is at their wits end and about to lose their family home whilst trying to subsidise the family with the sick child?
What other option does the landlord have against non payers?

They were very professional in how they dealt wth it.

But I've realised watching this its always somebody's else fault to why they can't pay or move out.

On this one I'm with the Tenant. Landlord is a tt.

I can't imagine what that family has been through and what it does to a family.

Not to give them 2 days is ridiculous. I'm not surprised his face was masked.

I really don't think Landlords should be able to use this High Court route for evictions, or they should at least have to give them a fixed date, not just turn up after the Housing Office has given them the County Court route advice that notice will be given.

fully agree. if he truly knew what it involved you would think he would have given them 2 days.

They should change the way these happen seems once it goes to the high court they all say the county court has not told them.

If the landlord gave them the two days so as they could move into the council house, the landlord would then have an empty house to re-let/sell. In not doing so they have a week to arrange collection of their goods/furniture. Does not compute!

Probably been mugged off by pisstakers so many times he doesn't even listen to the stories any more... Or maybe he was just a tt who knows.
