My apartments continue to piss me off...
Thursday. 2.7.08 9:08 am
So, not yesterday...but the day before that (at 5:30pm), I contacted the apartment community to let them know that my toilet was spewing water all over the bathroom.

They told me they would mark it as an emergency....I waited....and waited...no one showed up the day I called.

I called Brian yesterday at 12pm..."Did they fix the toilet yet?" The reply was no...SO, I'm mad...I call them...they set up a maintenance ticket. They specifically ask "Is this your only toilet?" and I respond that it is my only toilet...I told them, come after 5...I'll be there...I waited...and waited...no one showed up yesterday.

So much for a fucking plumbing emergency. We jimmy rigged the toilet to work because we have no other toilet to use. As far as we know, the water is not leaking all over the bathroom the way that we have it, but who knows if there is not some other leak that we do not know about. We have renter's insurance, but I do not think that this is our fault. If major water damage happens, I will fight paying the deductable because I did notify the apartment community that our toilet was leaking and they DID NOT come out and fix it...as urgent as the matter was.

I am livid...I want to break my lease and move out. This is fucking ridiculous! I lived in an apartment where if they did not come out and address the maintenance requests within 24 hours, I got free rent until I did receive the maintenance that I had requested. At that apartment, I had wasps that were coming into my house from an unknown location. They had to come out more than once to remediate the problem and they came out within 24 hours EVERY TIME. The current apartments I live in now have no such policy...they piss around for hours, days, weeks...even MONTHS...before they address an issue...yet, when they want to tow your car, they'll do it in 2 minutes. I fucking hate them...

The staff is rude and inconsiderate. They are not willing to work with you...they talk down to you. They cannot relate to absolutely any of their tennants working there. They make unreasonable demands...i.e. leaving the garbage outside of your unit is unacceptable and your trash needs to be put in the trash bins located at several locations on the grounds...their one flaw with this is...the trash bins are never emptied...they are FULLY LOADED with garbage...you can't fit it in the trash bin, you're not allowed to leave it on the ground next to the trash bin...you can't leave it outside your door in the breezeway (you'll get a $50 fine...per bag that they find outside of your unit)...where do you put it? In your house?!?! The whole point of taking the trash out is to take it OUT of your house...but we'll get fined for that...

We're not allowed to park in the same parking spot for more than 3 days at a time. If we do, they'll come tow your car...they towed my car because of that (what if I come home and I park in the same spot every day...is it my fault that it is open every time I come home??)...

I wonder who I can go to other than the management company to exercise my rights as a renter in regards to my maintenance request...I am fed up and I want out...and I do not feel that I should have to pay the penalties. I've lived since August with the rude and unacceptable behavior and I WANT OUT!

I've lived in a place like that before..It sucks.
There's generally a goverment agency for health and housing in rental problems and you could probably bring them in it. That scares the crap out of them. Or maybe find out who owns them. Also going to apartment ratings sites and trashing my old place made me feel better lol. Oh and the BBB!!
