funny tenants.....

[superlightr]

this is the sort of thing we have to deal with from tenants:

"Good morning x

it has come to my attention that my bank has pre paid you for the rental amount of £1,300 , and this has come out 3 weeks to early would it be possible to have that re instated into my account and the payment method will continue as normal from the 23rd

i would appreciate it if you could arrange this, as its all going on Christmas shopping
i hope this doesn't cause you to much trouble"



The rent is due on the 17th of each month, ie next week! nice to hear its all going on Christmas shopping.
the tenant is late most months with the owner in the past reluctantly agreeing that he could pay a week late to help him. We recommended not to renew the tenancy.

He didnt even say Merry Christmas!!!

Just for fun any witty replies we can send to him please?

No.

Tell them that you have spent it on Christmas shopping

Or that you would love to, but the money is already earmarked for the office Christmas piss up.

"..of course we can. However, the refun will be minus will be an admin charge of £50 to cover ours and the bank's costs"

Please let us know how you wish to proceed.

That is a lot to spend on Christmas shopping. (i only buy for a couple of people)

Also 'sort of thing you have to deal with'?!?!!? It takes a couple of mins to transfer it back!

I think he was meaning the basic cheek of the tenant rather than the hardship of transferring the money.

Too early yet, surely?

Gave you a kiss (x) though.

[johnwilliams77]

I wouldn't send it back. That's what you get for being

a) stupid
b) late previous times

Also, can he pay you if he spends it all on presents?

[LordJammy]

£1300 on rent? fkin hell blud.

[Jasandjules]

Would you be happy if over 1k left your account over a week early?

[hidetheelephants]

In the spirit of goodwill you could send him 1 week's interest on the amount, it's only fair.

Dear Sir/Madam

We can only deal with such requests in writing. Please send your request to:

Santa
Santa’s Grotto
Reindeerland
XM4 5HQ

If you have been a good little boy/girl/other LBGT gender then Santa may grant your wish. Unfortunately for you it's a very late request and the elves are very busy. They can only do so much work due to elf & safety.


Yours Sincerely

yes quite. lovely thought and sentiment. although Im sure a complaint would come landing on my door mat from the property omnibusman.

[Leptons]

It does of course beg the question, why have you taken the money from his account early without permission?

Hardly surprising though as every estate agent I've ever dealt with has been an incompetent fkwit. Funny Tennant indeed.

Merry Xmas!

This. The tenant may have paid late previously but two wrongs don't make a right!
