ComplainingI like writing letters of complaint to companies containing the words "premier league muppetry", if only to give the poor office workers a good laugh on an otherwise dull day. Have you ever complained? Did it work?

Yeah, because a fresh coat of paintIs known to destroy damp.
The landlord should employ the builders to investigate whatever it is about the outside of the property that is causing the damp and then fix it.
Try claiming asthma problems and threatening to sue if not sorted.

was thinking the same thinga coat of paint is pretty much the sweep it under the carpet, if you can't see it then it isn't there approach.
Eventually the wall(s) will decay, crumble and the building will be structurally unsound. So either a thousand or two now getting damp treatment (most likely either a leaking pipe above or porous brick pointwork outside so easily fixed now.
Or prop up and rebuild all the affected walls in the future costing LOTS more.
Some landlords are too shortsighted to spend a little now and save in the long term.
