Quoting george from 16:13, 23rd Jan 2006
I urge all people to group together and make a strong complaint against our treatment since this event. They tell us nothing. Currently we know nothing, because they apparently know nothing; I'm still waiting on that email that they promised.
I'm sure we know it's not their fault but how can't they have forseen something as major as this? It has seriously f**ked up my next 2 weeks ahead - I can't go to work because I'm sitting around waiting to move my stuff back in.
The more people unite, then the more compensation we are likely to get back, and I'm talking about more than the contents of our fridge replaced, more than the refunding our rent that we payed to stay in our room with all our possessions and our TVs, and our computers an our music and our food. The amount of time that this has taken out of our lives, the amount of stress this has caused.
This may not be the best formulated argument, but I'm just more than a little bit upset at the moment. I feel even worse for the people who aren't here and have no idea that their flat could be completely ruined.

Do you think we will actually get compensation? after all it wasnt during term time and we have been relocated within DRA, im sure they will find some way to worm out of giving us anything, especially if we live in the undamaged flats. But I agree that we should try and do something, being kept up half the night without being told anything is frustrating, as is having to find out strands of information through different Haig residents that are all being told different things. Plus ive been moved into a flat where everyone has gone home, which isnt just awkward for me but the people who live here who will return to find some stranger has been living in their flat. However I did love the letter they sent out on Monday 'updating us on the progress of repairs' and then proceding to tell us nothing we didnt already know, concluding with 'I am sorry I am not able to give you more definite information' what was the point in the letter then?
Sorry about the long boring rant, feel free to ignore most of it except Haig unite for compensation and better information as to how this happened in a building less that three years old.

To be honest living in Haig this year has been a bit of a piss-take, first we are woken up by the builders who start early and as soon as everyone is woken up by them they take a 3 hour tea break. They didnt even make allowances for Saturday hangovers and revision period. Our flat has had several unrelated drainage problems (bedrooms flooding, dishwasher drainage etc.) and no one seems to care.

Charlotte my little minx, is that you?
To continue the ranting, our dishwasher has been broken since before christmas and still isn't fixed. DRA is a pile of piss, we pay so much money to live here and they can't even send someone out to fix a dishwasher. Fair enough you cannot help a flood but keeping us informed would be helpful, I am at home and have recieved no information as to whether any of my stuff has been damaged or not. I now know that it hasn't but found that out through a friend. I hope the people whose stuff was damaged were told separately and not left to find out for themselves because that would not surprise me.
Anyway, as my dad would say "this is all character building!".

I think Haig evacuees should get free lunches until they are let back in.
