I'm with AnotherPaul. I think it's a local public information issue and I think Foxtons should comment. If it's legal and just an admin issue then fine but I'm sure they are not intending to have kids info on their database and should at least apologise.

I'm with (both) KKs too.


Are all local businesses supposed to check the Lounge section of the forum on the off-chance that there is an 'open letter' of complaint to them and subsequently reply? Such matters should and could be dealt with in person in the first instance, by all means inform people about what they have done but don't expect it to be resolved in the Lounge.


I wouldn't call people disagreeing with your thread bullies either.

I've always thought of an "open letter" as a tool to make public aware of something, which is what I assumed this was.


I didn't assume the OP was particularly expecting foxtons to respond on here, but more that he wanted others to look out for this happening so that they too would contact foxtons about it.

I actually got letter from Foxtons addressed to my dog Winston.

I kid you not...It was years ago and the only thing I can think is that they may have paid for customer details from either insurance companies (Pet insurance)

Or the vet.

It made me laugh, I didn't bother complaining.

I've made my points already, and quite clearly, so personally I don't need to add anything.

If someone has a view which is different, that's great. But there will be differences of opinion.

Everything I say on any thread I would happily say to someone's 'face'.

If anyone wants to start making age comparisons or other insults, well that's up to you. Good luck.

Involving children IMO is sick.

    • Well that is good news… alternative would have been homeless or private.
    • I was lucky that I received a student grant from 1990-1995 first 3 years for degree and 2 years post graduate bursary. Both were based on my income and I did not have to pay back. Eldest daughter got student loan and after 20 years managed to pay it off, Youngest daughter still paying hers 18 years later. Granddaughter - still paying after 6 years. Grandson decided against FE and secured an apprentenship. I am glad that I am an old codger and not young anymore !

    • It is not only Southwark - our grandson, partner and 7 year old had a one bed council flat for years in Harlow Essex and all the properties offered were in poor condition. They eventually took a property as if they refused another one they would drop to the bottom of the Housing List. It was damp and in need of a level of renovation. Having lived in these conditions for a while they were offered better council accommodation recently, but further away from child's school. They had to pay 2 lots of rent for a few weeks as council had to undertake work in the new premises before they could move in,
