I want to make sure that everyone is aware you have decided to “fire me”, not that I was ever allowed anything to do with management from the first moment. Clearly I keep asking too many embarrassing questions...
You have already received a cheque for £867.87 for the water tank. I have today put in the post the cheque for £593. Regarding the £2,000 let me know who has paid and who hasn’t, as I will not go against the majority because unlike you I am a reasonable person. But I still fail to understand what this £2,000 is for.
and my reply same day 6 October 2014:
you are likely to be the only lessee not to pay the £2000 arrears, and the tv install - by this evening
No worry - you're in deep trouble on both accounts - your dish (or rather Stella's) comes down tomorrow and non- payment of arrears is something no doubt you are well aware of sorting from many of your previous tenants - seri- ous business with very unpleasant consequences - add to that no permission to sub-let so any tenancy agreement is invalid (Stella wil be pleased), uncarpeted throughout and also sublet in that condition (Stella having yet a stronger case to not pay rent) and a possibly contaminated water supply (if Stella approached her solicitor, not only would she be advised to no longer pay rent till fixed, but she'd probably get back previous rental and deposit paid.
I would not want to be in your shoes, Michele. Best find a computer and get your monies paid before Stella gets home this evening. Management have enough on you to call the Police ourselves.....
No more, Michele - it's over - ok
And indeed my email to Mr Leigh Pemberton on 6 October 2015 (5 weeks into works’ schedule)
Chris -
Thanks for outstanding £2000
Are we to presume you are not making voluntary contributions for tank and tv
I made clear these have nothing whatsoever to do with the £2000 or the original schedule of works, budget etc.
The tank is an unforeseen urgent issue and the communal tv a good idea.... both need paying for outside of the budget.
If the tank monies are not received and replacement proceeds immediately, all lessees and their tenants are at risk most certainly if we go the lengthy 3-4 month Section 20 route.
I thought my previous email made this abundantly clear and at midday the consequences of a NO contribution in bank will be made clear to all tenants at Mitre House for safety reasons.
Makes sense doesn't it and doing the tank with scaffolding in place is far cheaper.... and the communal tv etc can't be executed without scaffolding....
Urgent reply please, Chris as we have to make a final decision in 10 minutes. And once made, the cat's out of the bag re tenant/lessee panics over possible contaminated water supply complaints queries insistence, withholding rent etc etc - a nightmare scenario....
Mrs Hillgarth states “However when I came to collect them on Friday 12 September at 15.30 he slammed the door in my face and refused to hand over the keys. Following this grossly rude and unprofessional behaviour I think he must have realised that he had overstepped the mark, and felt the need to justify himself in an e-mail he sent me the following day (13 September 2014) at 11.07. In that e-mail he gave an incorrect account of this incident when he said 1/1 opened my door to see you hiding around the corner". This was not true. There is no corner there to hide behind. I was standing right in front of his door. Why should I hide when I was coming as agreed to collect my keys?
Re: Keys - revised invoice and statement attached. Keys available for collection on receipt of monies due.
Michele
In her Witness Statement she states (Para 48)
She neglects to add my email to her on 16 September some 4 days later....and all previous and post emails!
