Right folks,
Could do with some advice, so need the STW massives consensus on this:
I have a house mate who announced last night that he was leaving on Saturday. He has cancelled his direct debit to my account and as of today will be living rent free as i havent been paid. He is demanding his deposit back, despite breaking the hoover and various other items. When challenged he got really aggressive and threatened me with violence if i didnt refund the deposit in full.
That doesnt bother me, he still owes 6 weeks rent as the T's&C's of the contract states thats the notice that needs to be given. I've yet to mention this. After the threatening and saying 'that life will get very difficult for me' and 'i can play dirty' im wondering what i can do legally???
I'd love to play him at his own game, but i dont know what hes capable of- - could quite easily throw i brick through the window.
Every bone in my body feels like i should fight it, but i have my girlfriend staying over every now and again and dont want to put her in danger, or have her car damaged etc......
I cant get in touch with citizens advice, ive a locksmith tee'd up for saturday.
Anyone any ideas???? I really dont know whether to just take the loss and put it down to the fact some people are just ar5eholes or get stuck into him. Im going to try the friendly approach again tonight, if that doesnt work im stuck - i'm no boxer!!
Anyone had any similat experiences???
............and no, its nothing to do with a gay affair before anyone starts!!
Come on STW, give me a helping hand!!!
