Landlord issues including holding bond

Just dispute anything you're not responsible for.

These were live and the only way to turn them off was with the cooker switch on the mains, but that turned all the sockets off in the kitchen, hence when the electrician finally came he turned it off and left it off and we lost all the food in the fridge as he didnt tell us.

Just to add that was when we moved in, we were not told there was no cooker as it was installed when we viewed, however we were told it was white goods when we moved in even though there were no white goods listed or not listed.
we never did any cooking yet we are being asked to paint the ceiling in the kitchen.
we steam cooked or microwave grilled as we had a portable electric one.

All of these breaches by the landlord could have been addressed while you were still living there had you sought advice, but I'm afraid the time to take action has now passed. Hopefully your new home is safer.

Yes they were addressed, what I was thinking was that we never made much fuss, and now we are leaving its like we trashed the house.
