Woke up this morning feeling unwell. Headache, dizziness and generally shit. I put it down to coming on my period/the hot weather but I didn't feel up to going to work. I took Dd to nursery and came back home. I felt okay at this point as was annoyed at myself for not going to work.
At home about an hour and started feeling unwell and I fell asleep on the couch which is something I never do. Woke up still feeling rubbish and went to collect Dd.
Dd fell asleep on the couch and she hasn't had a day time nap for months but again I put it down to the weather.
I put a chicken in the oven and about two hours later the carbon monoxide alarm started going off. Not just a random beep, it was a continuous beep for about ten minutes and the red light was flashing. I opened the doors and turned the oven and boiler off and it eventually stopped.
I phoned the national gas emergency line who sent someone out within 20 minutes and he condemned my boiler and oven and turned my gas supply off and told me to contact the landlord to come and fix it.
I phoned the estate agent who said she didn't know how to deal with this and asked me to bring the paperwork in. I did and when I got there she was a bit funny with me and asked who I got out to look at the boiler. I said I phoned the gas emergency line who sent someone out. She said in future ring us and we will send someone. I said well in a emergency you phone the emergency services, not an estate agent who will take a few days to get someone out. We could have been dead by the time they sent someone out if past experiences were anything to go by!
She said because I've phoned someone else and not them she has to get in touch with the landlord who will decide whether or not to send someone out and not only will it take a few days, I will also be charged for it.
Aibu to think this is bullshit? Surely a potential carbon monoxide leak is dangerous and should treated as such or am I being dramatic? She made me feel stupid for being concerned.
Any advice would greatly appreciated!
