    my husband and i r trying to find out whether we are on the bad tenancy list but its costing us too much to be calling all the time to be told that they r busy and to call back. Can someone help us to find out without paying so much money please??

    Write to the tenancy advice service in your area. I believe that in 2005 it bacame (nationally) a requirement that such lists were kept by the government agencies (tenancy advice services) and moved away from any kind of private REA/landlord lists. The REA or landlord now has to apply to the agency to get a tenant on an official list. All you will have to pay for is the stamp and invest the time in writing the letter.

    This is not to say that REA and landlords don't have thier own ilegal ists that they share around – thy just can't legally black list you because of one and you could make a discrimination claim against them if they tried.
