Subject Access Request is also a good idea - Is LL registered with ICO? - Did the LL protect your deposit? Rogue's normally don't cover their backs!...

Gas and electric during void period

by Celibin

When the tenant we took meter readings but subsequently forgot to register with a utility company. The only thing that may have accrued is a small amount of gas .
