some advice???

davek75

hello ladies and gents,

i know what your all thinking.... oh no! not davek75 again!! :)

well i have a little problem and am just looking for some advice really....

i have a new home as most of you already know but have a problem, when i first took the tennancy i was told to bring with me a £10 postal order for a contribution towards rent which i did and never thought anything more of it.... however a week later i had the housing association telling me i was a week behind with the rent?? and was i sent a rent card??? im entitled to full housing benefit and have already put a housing benefit form in for the property.

they then informed me that every tennant is a week in advance and was i able to pay £10 a week till i was a week in advance... to which i said yes! (anything to keep my new found home)...

NOW... because i was never informed on sign up for the property about being a week in advance am i obligated to still pay this or can they demand the week in advance to which i was never informed of???

thanks :)

  • Seems my gut instinct was right about SS then. Sorry to hear of your experience. Aspire got back to me yesterday, they were unable to help as I'm out of their reagion in East Sussex and my son is not 18 plus. Seems the problem is country wide. They are aware of the shortfall for post 16-19, but don't have any immediate plans to bridge that gap just now.

    If money was no object I'd start up a unit here in East Sussex, It's clearly badly needed, no wonder youngsters struggle. Perhaps that's one to lobby the MP for!

    Thanks for all your help though.
