  • thanks so much for reply...any idea which agency your pals went through? by Psychological_War297 (Mon 8th Feb 2021 11:23am)
  • Thanks for the reply, probably a stupid question but would mid market rent offer the same level of long term security as a housing association flat? by Psychological_War297 (Sun 25th Apr 2021 5:23pm)
  • My landlord has given me 6months so I'm not technically homeless yet. Would it still be beneficial to ring? by Psychological_War297 (Sun 25th Apr 2021 7:54pm)
  • are all the associations linked? For example if I applied for 4 different housing associations and Partick offered me a flat but I turned it down - would mean I'm off all the lists for each association? by Psychological_War297 (Sun 25th Apr 2021 7:52pm)
  • Sorry this is maybe ignorant question, but where have you been staying while homeless? I had it in my head that anyone who was homeless would pretty much be given a house/flat within a couple of months? I guess there's not much luck for me! by Psychological_War297 (Sun 25th Apr 2021 8:44pm)
  • I appreciate the reply, however, I don't think at any point I've said that I'm planning to make myself homeless... by Psychological_War297 (Sun 25th Apr 2021 11:38pm)
  • I think maybe you should jump over to r/conservative - given the racist and ignorant tones of your comment. do you have any idea how triggering it can be for someone to be told to "go back to where you came from" ? whether you disagree or agree with what they are sharing just please don't respond with comments like that. by Psychological_War297 (Mon 17th May 2021 2:35pm)
  • How do you asses integration though? by Psychological_War297 (Mon 17th May 2021 3:36pm)
  • Agreed by Psychological_War297 (Fri 28th May 2021 3:09pm)
  • Just out of curiosity, which letting agency is this? Hopefully you'll get some solid advice on here, but, you could also check out living rent for advice I think or post on legaladviceuk subreddit by Psychological_War297 (Fri 28th May 2021 3:05pm)
  • Which letting agency? by Psychological_War297 (Fri 4th Jun 2021 7:19pm)
  • I think it will be! by Psychological_War297 (Fri 11th Jun 2021 6:23pm)
  • Thanks for contributing, I wasn't aware they had done that during the first lockdown - that's obviously an incredibly decent thing for them to have done. I might have missed it, but, is there anything on the shop windows about being Pro-Palestine? by Psychological_War297 (Fri 11th Jun 2021 6:31pm)
  • Yes, this is the case, I don't really have an issue with that as if the community/public weren't willing to fund it then alas, it would not have been funded. I mentioned the word 'community' as recently someone smashed in one of their windows (as well as a shop near by), and they stated that they had refused to report it to the police (being ACAB & all that) and the "community keeps them safe", or something along those lines, which just reeks of naivety and privilege. by Psychological_War297 (Fri 11th Jun 2021 6:37pm)
  • I think in this particular case, yes. Given this is a café set up with money from the public, and they have chose to station themselves in a area that is pretty ethnically diverse, just take a stroll down Victoria Road and it's pretty clear to see there's as many white folk as there is people of colour in sight, yet there's no POC on the board of directors.... That plus all the BLM stuff on the windows. You can't make the argument that there's a lack of POC out there to be involved in the café, and if you're going to make your business so political and push certain ideals then you should really be making an effort to practice what you're preaching essentially. by Psychological_War297 (Fri 11th Jun 2021 8:20pm)
  • ...let me get this straight, you're accusing me of being a racist?....? by Psychological_War297 (Fri 11th Jun 2021 8:53pm)
  • DELETED If you have the guts, DM me as I'd like to have a direct chat with you. I'm POC, I have to attend a identity parade next week to identify the guy who called me 'P\*ki\*; and threatened to punch me as I was walking home from work and you think you have the right to call me a racist based on absolutely nothing. I'm quite disgusted at your comment, I think you should be utterly ashamed of yourself. by Psychological_War297 (Fri 11th Jun 2021 8:59pm)
  • You are being a huge dick, not going to lie. You're also misunderstanding pretty all the points being made here. I've not at any point asked for anyone to be excluded including white folk, I'm making a point about lack of POC being *included.* It's not difficult to grasp what I'm saying. by Psychological_War297 (Fri 11th Jun 2021 9:05pm)
  • Nope. I'm questioning why a collective of people who are pushing for diversity are lacking diversity in their own group. by Psychological_War297 (Fri 11th Jun 2021 9:21pm)
  • I second this, NEVER rent from Fineholm. by Psychological_War297 (Tue 6th Jul 2021 4:08pm)
  • No advice on the area, however, has your landlord gave you a 6-month notice to vacate? by Psychological_War297 (Tue 3rd Aug 2021 8:14pm)
  • 100% AVOID by Psychological_War297 (Thu 5th Aug 2021 12:21pm)
  • My heart jumped reading the first line, thought you were about to ruin the place by revealing the owners had done something sinister by Psychological_War297 (Sat 7th Aug 2021 11:28am)
  • The owner of godshot seems like a dodgy character unfortunately, there was a post on some shawlands facebook group from his ex-wife claiming he used to abuse her. I've also heard directly from a girl how he tried to get her to go up to his flat for some wine after she visited the cafe...this girl is like 23 and he's in his fourties. Kinda creepy. by Psychological_War297 (Thu 26th Aug 2021 8:13pm)
  • irrelevant, but, still kinda funny; one of the founders Morgan is from Colorado. His mother Stacey is a successful real estate agent (she owns a fair few properties herself) & comes from money. She follows & retweets the Denver Police on twitter....#acab y'all by Psychological_War297 (Sun 3rd Oct 2021 8:43pm)

  • DELETED My partner recently just quit swg3, and I can 100% believe this being true. There are some terrible folk working there and the bar staff are treated like trash. by Psychological_War297 (Sat 23rd Oct 2021 10:30am)
  • DELETED There used to be a really good team of barstaff there who over the past year or so have all left due to how poor management is, there is one manager there in particular who is an absolute c*nt. Rather than fixing the issues, they have just employed a bunch of young folk, some of whom literally don't know what a gin & tonic is. by Psychological_War297 (Sat 23rd Oct 2021 11:26am)

  • succ oth street by Psychological_War297 (Fri 3rd Dec 2021 8:21pm)
  • Avoid the one at charing cross though. staff are absolute roasters. witnessed one of the male staff make a pretty disgusting comment about a female customer who was in front of me in the queue as soon as she left. by Psychological_War297 (Tue 7th Dec 2021 3:53pm)
  • thanks for sharing, will avoid from now on. by Psychological_War297 (Tue 7th Dec 2021 3:55pm)
  • I have never hated anything more than I hate First Bus by Psychological_War297 (Wed 15th Dec 2021 6:13pm)
  • I have to rely on First Bus to get to my work. The nearest train station is a 45minute walk (uphill) so, nope I don't have scotrail :) by Psychological_War297 (Wed 15th Dec 2021 11:04pm)
  • What is fibre planning? by Psychological_War297 (Fri 17th Dec 2021 5:18pm)
  • I don't think this is correct. A friend of mine just got it and she works. she is definitely not on UC. by Psychological_War297 (Mon 10th Jan 2022 11:50am)
  • Just to add, I believe the landlord must actually give you 6 months notice. https://www.mygov.scot/private-rental-rights/if-your-landlord-wants-to-evict-you by Psychological_War297 (Tue 11th Jan 2022 12:05pm)

  • Can I ask which street you're on? Would definitely wish to avoid it! by Psychological_War297 (Mon 17th Jan 2022 8:58am)
  • OP isn't making out it's a common thing around Glasgow, they are saying it's an issue in Govanhill...which it is. by Psychological_War297 (Mon 17th Jan 2022 8:57am)
  • Why has this been downvoted? by Psychological_War297 (Wed 19th Jan 2022 9:36am)
  • I mean, they are also trying to charge me almost £200 for a professional cleaner when I actually left the flat spotless minus black mold on sealant. I guess the landlord could do with a little more money, evicting me & selling the flat for over 300k isn't much. by Psychological_War297 (Wed 19th Jan 2022 10:59am)
  • I'll have a peek at the tenancy agreement! the annoying thing is I did clean (maybe every two weeks) with black mold spray and always ventilated it as much as possible. by Psychological_War297 (Wed 19th Jan 2022 10:55am)
  • ah good point, it was actually an en-suite room with no windows and just a small extractor fan, so I'll mention this when I dispute with Safe deposit scotland. by Psychological_War297 (Wed 19th Jan 2022 11:02am)
  • This isn ctually what I used and did not work by Psychological_War297 (Wed 19th Jan 2022 11:13am)
  • I hadn't been to the dentist in years, decided I wanted braces so had consultations at five different orthodontists, each one told me I needed some work done my teeth before I could get braces EXCEPT St VIncent Smile, they did a quick consultation then spammed me with texts about applying for finance for about a month. by Psychological_War297 (Tue 25th Jan 2022 3:38pm)
  • I needed about 5 fillings, and a couple of other things. Urban Dental estimated I need around 1k worth of work (also, avoid Urban Dental, they are incredibly unprofessional). I would recommend Kalyani dental lounge on Bath St. Super friendly & very honest. by Psychological_War297 (Tue 25th Jan 2022 6:39pm)
  • Avoid Urban Dental by Psychological_War297 (Sun 30th Jan 2022 9:35pm)
  • Just super unprofessional. There's two receptionists, and one of them is incredibly rude. They gave me an appointment time and then when I showed up they told me I had no appointment, so had to wait another two weeks....this happened twice. I also showed up one morning, and I was ushered into what seemed like a large cupboard as they were having a 'team meeting' in the waiting area. This team meeting consisted of them all talking about their planned holidays for 10 minutes straight while I just waited awkwardly on an uncomfortable wooden chair. No one apologised! by Psychological_War297 (Mon 31st Jan 2022 2:20pm)
  • Man, I will definitely not be stepping in there again by Psychological_War297 (Tue 1st Feb 2022 8:15pm)

  • Owned by c*nts though, and most of the staff are up themselves. by Psychological_War297 (Thu 17th Mar 2022 2:39pm)
  • I'm guessing it was the landlord's furniture? And therefore it would be expected the landlord get rid of it. by Psychological_War297 (Mon 21st Mar 2022 6:57pm)
  • 'foreign looking' what does a foreigner look like? by Psychological_War297 (Mon 21st Mar 2022 11:24pm)
  • Yeah, I think our points have kinda went over their heads, sadly. Probably because no one actually bothered to read OPs full post, which is understandable by Psychological_War297 (Tue 22nd Mar 2022 9:19am)
  • I mean, no, as I'm pretty damn brown & born in Glasgow. by Psychological_War297 (Tue 22nd Mar 2022 9:15am)
  • Yeah, but that's the problem. You're basically saying that because he looks Middle Eastern he thus also looks foreign. by Psychological_War297 (Tue 22nd Mar 2022 9:26am)
  • please stop with the sexy thing. it's embarrassing. by Psychological_War297 (Tue 22nd Mar 2022 9:30am)
  • I think you need to check the definition of foreign. So let me just use your logic here, a caucasian Polish man who by all means could be Scottish, isn't a foreigner to you...because he looks like he could be from this country, despite not? I'm middle-eastern looking (my father is Palestinian). I was born In Glasgow & lived here all my life. I do not look Scottish. So I'm a foreigner? by Psychological_War297 (Tue 22nd Mar 2022 9:40am)
  • I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're not intentionally trying to be racist or problematic, nor wanting to argue. However, everything you've wrote so for is very, very ignorant. A) why is the buskers appearance or nationality relevant? ...it isn't. B) you literally stated in your reply to me that looking foreign is the definition of foreign...it isn't. Sunmary. You've seen a brown man and assumed he's a foreigner. You must be able to see the issue with this, surely? by Psychological_War297 (Tue 22nd Mar 2022 10:22am)
  • I've explained to you why your words and assumptions are problematic. Despite this explanation, you're still not seeing the issue. If you saw me on the street & referred to me as 'foreign' or 'foreign-looking', I would conclude you're a racist AND stupid as would any Scottish born person of colour. Stop being a tit & just take some time to reflect on what you wrote. by Psychological_War297 (Tue 22nd Mar 2022 10:31am)
  • Yeah, but I'm not...and that's my point. Stop making assumptions based on skincolour you racist little idiot. by Psychological_War297 (Tue 22nd Mar 2022 8:42pm)
  • In Glasgow, in 2022, with third & second generation asians, africans, arabs and so on...what does a 'foreigner' look like? answer me, please. genuinely curious. by Psychological_War297 (Tue 22nd Mar 2022 9:14pm)

  • You've made an account JUST to comment on this post, so it's obviously something that hits home for you. I'm guessing you've done some pretty creepy stuff to women, hence how defensive and accusatory you are. Pedo. by Psychological_War297 (Wed 18th May 2022 8:06pm)

  • To be honest, it's more likely the landlord has intention to sell. by Psychological_War297 (Tue 7th Jun 2022 10:18am)
  • I think it might be 6? But you're landlord has to give you an official notice. by Psychological_War297 (Tue 7th Jun 2022 10:22am)
  • You're suggesting this as if it's a completely realistic/easy thing to do, lmao. I take it you live in a bubble of privilege & money. by Psychological_War297 (Tue 7th Jun 2022 10:28am)
  • Maybe read the post properly before commenting...? by Psychological_War297 (Tue 7th Jun 2022 10:41am)
  • Yeah, I'm pretty sure this is correct. OP, what year did your tenancy start? This could explain why it states 3months, however - I believe this is outdated now? Seems according to the [mygov.scot](https://mygov.scot) website as of 2022, 6 months is required if landlord is selling. by Psychological_War297 (Tue 7th Jun 2022 10:48am)
  • If you take the time to read the post, and you believe that writing something along the lines of "just buy the flat?" will be a helpful contribution...then frankly, you are living in a "bubble". by Psychological_War297 (Tue 7th Jun 2022 11:12am)
  • I mean, duh! You can tell from the tone of the writing that OP is worried. Why would they be worrying if they were fincially comfortable to the point that they have deposit money, money for solicitors fee etc, to spare?? As for my contributions (is this even necessary for me to write...,jesus) I've gave OP advice on how much notice their landlord needs to give them & what realistically is the reason the landlord has got a surveyor in for. I've been in this situation myself. by Psychological_War297 (Tue 7th Jun 2022 11:29am)

  • All the folk I know who got flats via Govanhill H.A are all dealing with multiple issues including (but not limited to) folk pissing in the close, folk smoking heroin in the close, neighbours dealing and selling to teenagers in the close, fly tipping, nappies being left in the close, brothels next door. Probably makes sense that they can provide flats fairly quickly by Psychological_War297 (Tue 5th Jul 2022 1:04pm)
