On Monday dp got a frantic call from our landlord stating this months rent payment has not gone in to his account. This has never happened before in two years of living in the property and so dp checked our account and it showed the direct debit had gone through as normal. He told the landlord this.
Landlord was very insistent that we needed to call the bank and ask if the payment had gone through even though it showed on the statement it had. He rang us again on Tuesday demanding we contacted the bank. We did and they said what we expected 'payment has been taken out probably just taking a little longer than usual to clear please allow 48 hours'.
Again Wednesday landlord rang with 'this money needs to be in my account now or I will be overdrawn' at this point we were getting very annoyed as a) not my problem if he's overdrawn and b) there's not much we can do if money has been taken out the account.
Pestered us all day with different numbers to ring whilst we were both working and trying to do our jobs. Eventually it turns out money had gone in his account last Saturday he'd just missed it on the statement and was overdrawn anyway regardless of our rent. Since then we've heard nothing - no apology, no 'my bad' not even a thanks for harassing the bank.
Aibu to think that's not how you treat loyal tenants of two years who've never caused you issues.
