Problems paying your rent?

It is very important to Magenta Living that tenants pay their rent in full and on time.  If you miss a payment you should contact us as soon as possible to agree with your income officer how you will clear your account.  If you fail to clear the debt or fail to engage with us about doing so then we will arrange for a court hearing to seek possession of your home.  If a hearing takes place it is likely that you will incur £325 court costs and ultimately the court could order that you vacate your home.   

 

It is the tenant’s responsibility to ensure they secure the benefits they are entitled to.  Delays in making a claim or responding to requests the local council or DWP for supporting information can result in the loss of benefit.  If you would like help in claiming benefits or appealing a decision to deny you benefit then you should contact your income officer who can refer you to our financial inclusion team. 

Your income officer can also arrange for the financial inclusion team to assist you if you are struggling to budget and manage your money. To speak with your income officer call our contact centre on 0808100 9596.
