ANYTHING that deviates outside the law, get on CAV right away. Anything. No matter how small. You owe this trash nothing now, take the gloves off.
You already spoke to tenants vic about the pots, right? If so, call them again and mention this escalation. The sequence of events may actually have this considered retaliatory in context and they’ll go right up the tailpipe.
Thanks for the details! Yeah I did speak to Tenants Vic about the pots. The lady on the phone laughed (apologetically) at how ridiculous the request was.
I intend to move out anyway regardless of notice to vacate as I don’t want to deal with this person any longer than I need to, just wondering when I might actually get to use this info. I’m guessing if and when any breach happens. It does take at least 45 minutes (after about 10+ tries) to get through to Tenants Vic so I probably might hold off on calling them until any further developments happen.
One thing I’m concerned about is that if I apply for a new place and LL is contacted as a reference, that they might make up shit about me - not sure what I can do about any of that.
These blinking application portals (2Form, whatever) do often need evidence of past rental history though, and my lease/bank statements show payment to the LL…
