I have a dispute with the Agency through whom I rented a property for my Mother-in-law. She vacated the property 6 months ago and our deposit has yet to be repaid. The property suffered flooding from pipes that were blocked by tree roots and also from the property above during the tenancy causing damage. The Agency is now seeking to hold us liable for damages that were clearly evident prior to occupation and that were caused during occupation through no fault of the tenant. Despite the fact that the quotations for damages does not equate to the full deposit, the Agent has now decided they will withhold the full deposit. As a matter of principle, I cannot stand for this.

I was threatened by a business owner that claims I owe them money but cannot deliver a proper account or statement which I have asked several times for. Her exact words was I must watch my back as she will find me in the streets and deal with me in person as well as well as threatening me that she will come to my house and collect the money herself.

I want to ask, I am going through a disciplinary investigation, how long after the date of the letter must the hearing be held? The owner of the school told the manager to tell me when I went home that I am not allowed to go back to work and I have also been at home for 4 days after they told me I am not allowed to go back. I actually gave in my resignation on 18 March and the manager refused to sign it and now the letter of investigation says 30 March and hearing was on 02 April but I ONLY received the letter today 04 April. What should I do? How many days after a letter date is a hearing supposed to be held ?
