NormanH Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 This couple got back to find the locks changed, and their 'friend' refusing to leave!http://www.midilibre.fr/2013/01/09/leucate-ils-pretent-leur-maison-a-une-amie-depuis-ils-campent-dehors,624102.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suein56 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 That is seriously scarey; though I don't understand why nothing can be done. The article says the couple are paying all the bills for their unwanted squatters ... surely there should be some way to do something about that, if nothing else for the time being.Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idun Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I have a feeling that they are obliged to pay their bills too, I don't think that they can cancel any of them.This is madness isn't it, in any country it would be. I don't know what I would do, but I would think of something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patf Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Isn't there a law that you can't evict in the winter months? Depends on the age of the occupier too.Tenants in France have a much stronger position than in UK. Sounds as if they had a written agreement but it wasn't worth the paper it was written on.

nomoss Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I'll bet there's a lot more to the story than what's published in Midi Libre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
