Then she told me that the washing machine didn’t operate and was being repaired. My housemates subsequently told me that the washing didn’t function at all, so they had to hand wash.
But the worst part was the refrigerator. It was so noisy that I was unable to sleep. After two weeks, I moved out.
I’m locked inside my flat, and it is the only way out. So I decided to contact the emergency maintenance number. This occurred at 6 p.m.
With the prior leasing business, if you phoned emergency maintenance, you would be connected to an on-call person who would normally arrive at your unit within 15 minutes. With the new one, I now have voicemail service. So, I left a message informing them of the problem.
About 15 minutes later, I received a callback. “Yeah, you called. What do you want?” asks the unpleasant voice on the other end. I describe the matter and am informed, “Uhhhh, let me call my supervisor and see what he wants me to do.” It is currently 9:37 p.m. I have yet to receive another callback.
Fortunately, my neighbor noticed my car door was open (after getting the boxes) and came to check on me. The door is finally open, but it must remain propped up or I will be stuck again. There is still no maintenance. © Manofmanyhats19 / Reddit

I wanted to move to a new place. I came, and it was filthy! The landlady’s son talked to me dismissively but said they would hire a cleaner, who would arrive in four days. So now I have to live in this mess. And a dog was running about in their yard.
I’m nervous around dogs due to a horrific incident, so I always seek apartments with no dog policy. If I had known, I would not have rented a house with a dog. In summary, I intend to terminate the lease, even though I will incur financial losses. © toclosetoquestionit / Reddit

My partner and I decided to take our relationship to the next level by moving in together. We found the ideal location for a very cheap price. We have recently moved in.
Suddenly, the landlord told us that he had caught his wife cheating on him. They had a fight, and he wants us to leave as soon as possible since he is going to live here himself. This is a dreadful issue! © sonteheridosin / Reddit
It was quite noisy. He could not sleep. So he stayed for a week and then moved out.

The landlord forces renters to use particular (and highly expensive) eco-friendly cleaning materials and prohibits the use of colognes and scents. Controlling such details feels like an odd violation of privacy to me, but the lease has already been signed. Is this lawful? © Piehogger / Reddit
