to be really fucked off with estate agents?

[maybebabybee]

I had a baby 2 weeks ago. Traumatic emergency c section. We are moving into our own place end of April, currently in private rented. Estate agents have been showing prospective tenants round for nearly a month now, haven't managed to shift it primarily because they keep getting the wrong people in - ie sharers when the second bedroom is a box room, or people looking for furnished when this is unfurnished - everything belongs to us.

They're really starting to irritate me. They asked to do a viewing at 4.30. I said yes as a one offeven though I'd said before I only wanted post 6pm or Saturday mornings so oh is around to help me if I'm feeding or in bed (still in a lot of pain). Then changed viewing to 5pm. It's now 5.25 and no sign of them and they've not had the courtesy to even phone to let me know. They know I have a newborn and am recovering from surgery. They do this constantly.

AIBU to be pissed off?

OP the post where you said you didn't have the energy to fight on the doorstep concerned me. You are recovering from major surgery and looking after a newborn. Please refuse all further viewings. All. You will look back in a few months and realise how vulnerable and tired you are right now, you don't need to be polite to the estate agents or LL, you're allowed to stick up for yourself right now of all times in life

In London, once you've moved out they will shift the place in a day so don't feel guilty. London property moves fast.

Yeah I don't know why they even bother showing people round before the current people have moved out. Much better to get them out and show a clean, empty of possessions flat which has had a quick lick of paint.

I would have thought the easiest way to get a large amount of votes for any particular party would be to legalise violence towards estate agents. Proper regulation and outlawing some of the dubious practices would be a start.
