Lay My Hat

Sensible suggestions about EASCO and Trading Standards (and the local paper?) I would also look at small claims court issues the other way 'round. You know you don't trust them, you have a valid definition of "holiday maker", and you don't want to deal with them any more. Tell them you're ...

Welcome Tobias and Julia Some of the others will be along with sound suggestions, I'm sure...particularly those that manage properties / arrange repairs etc (tho' not necessarily from your region). We're just (?up) down the road from you, in Antibes. Brockles is a member on here, and again not far (...

I made an enquiry, using the number technique someone else had mentioned, which got through...I also found the villa through their own website. They replied via OD (and their own website), but I didn't receive anything from OD...I did, however get this yesterday... Owners Direct Our Family of Brands...

As I'm battling with OD / HA about having to remove my telephone number from my listing (a lost cause, I know), I can't tell you haw excited I was to get a telephone message from Sam, looking for a week away, wondering if I had availability after Easter next year. She'd seen my ad on The Holiday Let...

OK, so I removed the 'offending' phraseology, but they now won't reinstate the ad until I remove the 'phone number (as again, this might encourage people to book outside their platform...) How are people supposed to talk to me?...just via the typed word , via the OD system, which will be censored as...

I have now received an e-mail direct from Homeaway (as opposed to Owners Direct, who sent the last one and apologised for the system error 14.9.17) to say that my listing has been deactivated due to wording which is encouraging potential renters to book other than via their on-line platform.... Erm....

As has been mentioned on here, on another post, your best bet may be to ask HMRC for advice. You're exploring possibilities, and there may well be other tax considerations (for example,will your parents be selling their home, assuming they own one?) It may be advantageous to convert from FHL, to a s...

I had the same response from Shepway...We are about to embark on a similar project in Southwark, and I'm sure the answer will be the same there too...

I admit to being confused this morning (easily done, these days...). I am a lay-person when it comes to TVA / VAT, and I'd appreciate a few pointers. My manager has recently 'become' an SAS, and is charging TVA...on everything. I am not sure if this is correct, but I'm sure someone here will know. H...

I suppose that it might be assumed that, if the property's no longer on the website, that it's no longer 'available' , for whatever reason? If , when the renter arrives, there's no property for them to stay in, their money will be 'protected', one assumes. If I were about to stay at your property, a...

As a deterrent , I have this in my T+Cs:

"If illegal downloads are tracked to the studio ip address, we will be obliged to supply the contact details of the relevant occupant to the relevant authorities"

As today is the 20th, perhaps this is linked to the 'erroneous' email they sent out last week telling the rest of us on subscription that we'd be de-listed by the 20th if we didn't remove our telephone numbers, contact details etc. They back-tracked in 24h, and now they've gone back to those of us o...

Can I suggest a thermostatically controlled heated towel rail, if you can find the space ?

Google search: Victorian plumbing have a good range

As usual, I think they're having a fiddle with the site, as some of the Help pages are now blank! Have a look at help Home / getting started / How do I get paid... If you are linked with Holidayrentpayment there would seem to be a way to 'progress' to Advance payment...contacting them, if they are y...

What I did find interesting (and most of you had probably picked this up already) is that, it seems if you adopt online payments prior to your subscription expiring you should get 'immediate' as opposed to post-check-in payments (in the Help section)
