Hi
Right just to explain.
Me and my partner where living in a studio that had mold issues and I asked our landlord if he had other properties to rehouse us I was paying £400 for it we are stuck with this landlord due to money issues.
He had some new studios priced between £400 to £450 I ended up choosing one at £425 at the time I was glad to get out of the mouldy flat as I was worried about health risks.
I would dearly love a flat with seperate bedroom etc and have seen these priced around the same price as this tiny studio I am in.
I feel really depressed as I just cant get the money together for the £1000 they want these days to move in somewhere and my credit rating is useless and I cant get a guarantor so I am stuck at getting something better for same money or even less.
I have noticed that he is not filling the studios that well and a lot have been reduced right down to £350 would I be unreasonable to ask to move to another one for this price or would it be cheeky.

Hello lakia10 , we're really sorry that you're going through such a hard time at the moment.

We know that your thread was started so you could get advice on your accommodation issues, but as you've posted about feeling so low lately, we thought it might be a good idea to post a link to our Mental Health webguide. There are plenty or organisations listed on it which could give you support in real life. You can also go to the Samaritans website, or email them on [email protected].

Support from other Mumsnetters is great and we really hope you will be able to take some comfort from your fellow posters, but as other MNers will tell you, it's really a good idea to seek real life help and support as well.

From a practical point of view, we'd echo the advice given by other Mumsnetters, to get back in touch with Step Change for more advice. We also have a webpage on debt and money matters with links to Citizens Advice Bureau and other organisations which can offer you support and advice.

We really hope things start looking up for you soon. Flowers
