# I was a bit bad I suppose
Sorry to be a hogthread but is anyone here among the guilty? As well as almost legendary untidiness I do admit leaving 3 magazine subscriptions (and a paper bill from the newsagent amounting to 150 quid), two large phone/cable TV bills, 2 electricity bills and one hefty gas bill, plus lots of council tax and housing benefits watermelon ups behind. I have since learned to get somebody else's name on the contract.

# .
I managed to go something close to two years without paying council tax. I just pretended it didn't happen. I managed to get my landlord taken to court my never paying a water bill for two years. And one of my former flatmates after running up a huge phone bill on an account in his name and telling BT I'd just moved in. Yay. I Rule.

Other than that I'm lovely, I cook, clean and am generally spiffy. Honest.

# For the last few years
I've had trouble getting any sort of bond/deposit back from landlords as they all seem to think that they don't need to return any deposits. so this year (and last year if im honest) i just don't pay the last months rent.

they can happily keep the bond then.......stuff em!!!

# I know that one.....
in 4 years, me and my 3 flat mates NEVER paid for water. After we'd all moved out(about 7 months later, in fact) I was back in town and went to have a butchers at the old gaff. It was empty, but I saw something poking out the letter box, so I half-inched it. Turned out to be a water for for over £1000!!! Oooooops! Can't believe we got away with it*
