First Time Renting

[clartymarty]

Hey all

My girlfriend and I have managed to get a house to rent and most of our questions have been answered. This one I was wondering on the way to work.

They guy has both Sky & Virgin lines already put into the house. What would the steps be on getting set up? and what are peoples preference between the 2

How long would it take for me to get set-up for the internet. I am away the day we move in but the missus is there while I am gone.

I was wondering if you could give some advice because I might get her to set it up while I am away ready for my return

(wishful thinking)

What is with this forum always wanting Pics? Thanks btw we have been looking around for 3 months or so. The landlord is great - reduced the bond, reduced the rent. Also he is letting us pay for 1 weeks rent and then start at the begining of the month for easier payment.

We move in 2 weeks. I suppose if it takes a week or so I am sure I will be able to live

Make sure the landlord properly registers your bond and provides documentation for it, and make sure the properties certs are up to date too.

He has assured us that he will only see the deposit once and then it will be the last time he has anything to do wit it until we both sign the documentation at the end of the tenancy.

I think I will go and see what deals we can get and try and get an engineer in the day I get back after the weekend.
