I wouldnt like to get on the wrong side of you Don, your full of immense revenge strategies. I wouldnt really like to take this to court, I have very little faith in the 'justice system' and rightfully so. Your other suggestions are very much valid though, I appreciate it
Damned right you wouldn't want to take it to court, you're the one at faultI wouldnt like to get on the wrong side of you Don, your full of immense revenge strategies.

You wouldn't be in there 5 minutes before getting kicked out. There is NOTHING you can legally do to obtain that money, you and your flatmates hold no contracts agreeing to how payment and whatnot would eb dealth with, it was all done on trust, this is never a good thing to do wieh it involves money, because if someone has no obligation to pay money out, generally they won't.
Its not because of me! When I left I looked into putting the account in one of their names, Virgin Media only made it possible if they started another contract, something which was pointless for the remaining months so we agreed that I would continue paying it and they would pay me. Now theyre saying they werent expecting it to be that much, so I say 'what are you prepared to pay' and they say that they owe me nothing - theres no logic to them and they do need a life lesson. Im not so much exacting revenge as teaching them a lesson and effectively paying them £25 for the pleasure.I'd say cut your losses. This is because of you, not them. If you move out, cancel the darn account. You set yourself up for this one
Folk that try and get revenge on people, well i just consider those as people i would not want to have anything to do with
I've been in your situationI wouldnt like to get on the wrong side of you Don, your full of immense revenge strategies. I wouldnt really like to take this to court, I have very little faith in the 'justice system' and rightfully so. Your other suggestions are very much valid though, I appreciate it
i actually put all of the girls possessions in the back yard phoned her and said make the transfer or i'm torching your stuff.
Thanks for the support Hydrodawg
If it comes to it Ill be sure to get you involved
Got in ALOT trouble at school for doing something strangely similar, I think Im too traumatized to ever do that again lol
You moved out of the building. Why was it of your concern whether the other tenants started their own contract? You no longer lived there, it wasn't your responsibility. What you did was you moved out and agreed that you would pay the bills and they would use the services. If you didn't sort out any form of legal protection to make sure they paid the money, be it through the landlord or otherwise, then yes, this is an issue of yours. They are under nothing but a moral obligation to pay. I understand you wanting to help them out, and i would do the same, but the difference is that each tenant has £400 sunk into a security deposit and we all have contracts. I've not had a penny for bills in almost 5 months now, i've paid em all myself, but i am legally guaranteed to get the money off them one way or another
Lol!! Now I'm curious, what did you do lol.
I wish he would have hit your dog. then maybe your vandalism would have been warranted. dude is already fucked because your a snitch but then you gotta do more? it takes a special kind of piece of shit to do that. you'll get yours in the end though, karmas a bitch.
I agree that if i had a legal guarantee that just the threat of court action would resolve this, or that it maybe wouldnt have occured at all. It is a moral obligation rather than a legal one, your right but it is exactly at times like these that a more creative solution is required. I doubt I will ever find myself in a situation like that again, but if i do encounter something similar i will know to have it stitched up beforehand.You moved out of the building.

I'm not saying that they shouldn't pay the money, that's only fair, but the only reason you're in this situation is because of your own actions. If you move out of a house, cancel your utility accounts. You are simply protecting yourself, it's generally a wise thing to do.
It does seem a little harsh man, I dont agree with drink driving but you are somewhat advocating double jeopardy here, I would have thought the police would have been enough, although im quite surprised anything came of your call tbh. If its a man, I know where I stand, it would have ended on that sidewalk in a brief fist fight most likely, lets face it, only if i was beat up would i take it any further.
I went to a pretty strict school, got suspended for 2 weeks because I photoshopped (probs the wrong word condiering I think it was on paint 98 or something like that) a picture of this kid (Id obviously had a falling out with) onto a threesome scene, involving two big black guys if i remember correctly. I thought it was funny at the time (in a crude way) but when it eventually circulated to teachers at the school I knew i was fucked lol - as i said, still a little traumatised, it wasnt the good kind of suspention either, it was an 'in-school' suspention
