Re: Benefit tenants 'rip off' landlords.
Where i used to live, the guy below me was evicted after the DSS found out that his girlfriend was living with him and shouldnt have been as she was working and his benefits stopped. Not only did he walk away owing well over £1500 but because they were dirty gits he caused a maggot infestation throughout the building by having over 7 months of waste in bin bags piled up that he didnt take out to be collected. This meant that i had to claim for more stuff from the DSS when i moved to replace everything including my sofas which it had infected, my bed which was a divan and a lot of my clothes and thankfully my Housing officer was brilliant and wrote a letter explaining the circumstances to the DSS and they did help me and could see it wasnt my fault.

I cant understand how some people can live like that. I cant afford a house of my own but the flats that are let out to me i always take pride in and care of and if a repair person from the housing association comes to the flat i always make sure he/she does the same.
