You say you were not the first to cancel the contract because for a while now you have been under no contract, the landlady cancelled it. If that is the case, then, what the contract says about you being able to leave in the middle of the month and pay only for that portion no longer applies because there is no contract, right?The lease also states that the full amt of security deposit will be returned in that case. ANd only in the event that I had been the first to cancel the agreement , would i have forfeited 100% of the deposit. (But i wasnt the first to cancel).
lightangel said:If, on the other hand, you assume the contract went on as a 'verbal agreement', then that would make you the first one to cancel the contract, no? That would actually mean you should forfeit your deposit, no??
lightangel said:That is only on the therotical side of things... on the legal side you are not protected because you simply have no contract. So, going to the police or to a lawyer is not an option.
lightangel said:So, your choices are:
(1) To try to negotiate nicely which will probably result in your not getting any more money back or
(2) To try to blackmail the landlady which might or might not get you more money back. But it will get you a couple of enemies for sure.
Make two columns. Put the pluses and minuses under each column, count them.. see where you arrive.
elizabeth said:man IS inherently evil, selfish and self centered. Sad, but true.
Nah! They are survival necessities, they are the human condition. Evil is something else.To me those traits are all evil.
martin said:I think X is bad at being bad.
And bad at bad is good, like minus minus is plus.
The other solution is that X is a woman of course, but Nicky found that already.
elizabeth said:However, the evil women I know FAR outrank the men in terms of being just terrible human beings.
Yes, I have lived and worked in all those places, who knows maybe we have passed each other some place. Orchard Road, Change Ally, Silom Road, Chulia Street, Kuta Beach?
