Work out a claim for what it has cost in laundry bills and what the value of rented car spaces is in your area. Put together a comprehensive joint statement of claim to present to your rental agent. Explain to them that failure to accede to your request for proper compensation plus a rent reduction until such times as the services are reinstated, will lead to action at Fair Trading.
If they don’t come to the party within a reasonable time contact Fair Trading’s tenancy division (Tel 13 32 20) and ask about proper compensation for the non- provision of a facility that you have been paying for. The compensation should go back to the date of the fire and there should be a reduction in the rent until such times as it is reinstated.
