Rented a 12 bedroom house and had a horrible experience.

Horrendous, I am a third year student that lived in a 12 bedroom house coming to the end of my contract, and I cannot wait. We had issues with mould in multiple bedrooms and living spaces that made myself and another member of the house fall ill. I also have a friend in another house owned by the same company who had serious mould issues. We organised a council visit and found out that one room that a member of the house was staying in was illegal due to fire regulations. On top of that some of the contractual obligations seemed to be non-existent as the landlord would freely enter the property and bedrooms (the contract states he needs to give 24 hour notice). This eventually led to a member of the landlords staff walking into a girls bedroom whilst she was changing. The landlord himself was rude on multiple occasions and patronising, it felt as if no-matter what I spoke about I was wrong. We had many other issues with the house however there are so many it is hard to list them all; windows not closing, cracks in skylights, boilers didn’t work and one fridge between 12 people. Now to be fair to the landlord he has recently started fixing these issues, however I have noticed that this generally happens around the beginning of term when we have to pay a rent instalment. Some of my house-mates are second years and they have resigned a contract as he has started to sort the house out. On top of that he has reduced the rent ridiculously and made bills included, this hasn’t affected me though and I still am getting the same treatment from the landlord that I received when I signed up. Every one that has re-signed (again he seems to be more pro-active when money is involved) he has been nicer to and has started to pay attention to any issues they raise. Now one of the most annoying things about this house is that not only is it the worst house and service I have come across at university (I have stayed in three properties all with different landlords) I have paid the most and bills were not included. This was to the point that my loan actually wasn’t enough to cover the cost of rent and bills meaning I had to get a job. Just as an end note then I would also like to point out that on the website it states every house includes “Sky TV, Netflix, Xbox 360 & PS3, HD LED TV’s in all communal lounges, fully furnished rooms, and biweekly cleaning service” We had a sky box that only played a few channels and a TV (not HD or LED) that would turn black and white every half an hour. Nothing was ever mentioned to me about installing an Xbox or a PS3 and my room still now coming to the last month of my contract has not got a chest of drawers (I have a wardrobe, a desk and a bed) and it wasn’t until I believe two months ago that we heard the first about this cleaning service. Renting from this company was awful, the house was horrible the service was worst and I have paid the most I have ever paid for accommodation at university. P.S; I am sorry if you have come across this review before but I plan on posting it on as many review sites as possible.
