I am sorry for keep asking for advice. However, I seem to be in a situation where I am inundated with problems.
I have rented privately for over four years with my three daughters.(the youngest is 13) (the eldest two are at Uni) However, they still live with me during their long Uni holidays.
(my middle daughter normally comes home most weekends)
I have always been excellent at paying my rent. I have turned my life around. I pay all priority bills on time. I still suffer with debt problems associated with non priority debts.
My landlord put the rent up by 600 pounds a year in January. Also from September I received a massive drop in housing benefit (although, they said they still take into account I have three daughters, though the 2 eldest are at Uni)
For the first time ever...I am short of rent.
I can pay most of it on Tuesday when the rent is due. (however, I am short by 250). I can pay the remainder by the 12th November. I feel nervous about approaching the agency, though I know I have to.
If up to now I have had an excellent record for paying rent, do you think this would stop the landlord renewing the contract?
I applied for an overdraft online but was turned. I suffer from severe anxiety so it has brought on my depression again.
The problem is I should have an emergency fund to turn to. I know it is imperative I start this month as soon as I receive wages.
