Thankyou lovely!
I think the problem is we resigned since the month thing? So i don't think that carries over. BUT atm, he is still being unreasonable.
Its going to take a while for the boiler to be fixed again apparently.. so not hot water or heat still.

I see your point but it shows history. If I were you I would speak to the agent ASAP whilst you are still having problems with the boiler. Tell them you've had enough. Honestly I'd be as forceful as possible, you may not get anywhere but you may worry him enough to want to get some more 'stable' tenants.
Thankyou so much! Its so helpful to get your point on it as a landlord
I know it seems shitty of us to want to get out of the contract, but, he honestly, is unreasonable and impossible to get hold of when its actually important.
No prob, hope it helps. We've had some really crappy tenants and it is so hard to do anything legally. We currently have a tenant that has not paid for three months, there are so many steps we have to go through before we will get our money- and that's with two other tenants being co-responsible for the rent and him having a guarantor! Meanwhile we have to find the money to cover the mortgage.
One tenant ruined a leather sofa of ours, it was ripped to shreds by his cat (every single part of it damaged, gaping holes is several places). DPS sided with the tenant and said it was 'fair wear and tear'. The really galling part is that our contract clearly stated NO PETS! Ridiculous.
Anyway, hope you get yourself out of there. As PP said- be a nuisance tenant, and take notes of everything.
