This takes the biscuit!

I've just had a bill from my landlord, it's for £206.43 for maintenance of a lift.





I live in a bungalow!

Yes we get them too no lift here but apparently we have to pay for a share of the flats three miles away, maddening it is.

That can't be right for either of you. Don't pay & take it further, I would.

You don't fall for this rubbish do you?
Refuse to pay.

Tess, he probably remembers how you take your leggings off and knows you can't reach them on the top of the wardrobe... so the kind man is going to put a lift in so you can retrieve them.
Hey perhaps the man who fits the lift will be handsome and rugged with a lovely beard.

Re: This takes the biscuit!

It's a Housing Association property so I guess they're hoping to fund their Xmas do!
There was a letter with the bill saying I had to contact them before the 18th December if there was anything wrong or they would not be able to adjust charges. I got it today 19th!
Also another letter saying, "Due to delay posting our letters....we decided to extend this deadline to 23rd December..." That's flippin' big of them!

Incompetent imbeciles!
