Everything started off great when we moved into our new apartment on Street 55. The landlords son could speak English and addressed my partner and I sister and brother. They asked us whether we wanted to cook with gas or electricity and we said we would prefer to cook with gas. The son then asked us to try electric cooking and if we didn't like it we could switch to gas. We tried to be diplomatic and accepted their suggestion. Everything was going well when things started to go strangely. First their cleaner stole something from my partner and threw it in the garbage. They fired the cleaner and told us that we would no longer have a cleaner and that we were on our own regardless of what the lease we signed said. We didn't mind cleaning for ourselves but the mother kept coming upstairs and looking through our windows and staring at us at all times of night and day. It made us feel really uncomfortable. They had played a little game with the power meter and it was running really fast. In our first week our normal every day usage had jumped to $40 and they said its because the appliances are new. In our previous place our bill was $100 a month with 2 bedroom nonstop AC. We spoke to the son about the meter and he and his deranged mother were infuriated and claimed we had labeled them cheaters and theives. I was starting to get nervous and my partner opened a new lock he bought and we locked our front door with a padlock and barricaded the back door with furniture. They became angry and insisted on a 24 hour access to our home without permission. The mother kept perving on us every day. We decided to move out and asked for our deposit back because of his mothers strange behaviour. He told us they will keep the deposit and that we had to pay the power and water bill immediately. He claimed he would happily call the police and have us arrested for not paying their over inflated power bill. We had always accepted our defeat when it came to losing the deposit to these people but I just don't know why they have to come to us in the middle of the night, ahow family of five and threaten us. We are willing to pay the power and water bill and losing the deposit as well. As they left they peeked through the windows of the other tenants of the compound. I would recommend avoiding Orkide Apartment on Street 55. Near Kaviar Restaurant and Club 55. Good luck home hunting people!
