BTW The pool is not Big...

Thanks

I too have an empty pool which requires repairs but have not been able to find the right people for.

I found a guy for filling water but he asked for an astronomical sum per tanker ( 280 QR). I will need 10-12 tankers to fill my pool. Searching for an alternative. By the way the villa caretakers are suckers. They dont care a damn about it.

I am definitely not cool about this.

Wait for the rain and your pools will be filled for free. It is a matter of 2 to 4 months only:))

Ohhh, there is much more, but the more I talk about it the more upset and hateful I get.
Just one thing...the 'landlord" collects 20000QR for this piece of shite abomality called a house.

My landlord has given me a written notice, increasing the rent to 22000 from 15500..... I am planning to take him to court

Good luck!
Do you think it is worth risking even more of the sanity that is left for us?

Hey glad to see house prices are finally coming down … not! What is wrong with this place?

DaRuDe said What ooo ...

house prices coming down who said that na dont ever believe them. unfurnished price might be getting low coz they ask you to buy furniture for about multi thousand bucks.

Is your A/C central or split?

Central.
They put the pipes in the wrong way, better said, they forgot some obviously vital parts.
They told me :Sorry Madame, too expensive to fix.

KellysHeroes said Alexa ...

Think some bacteria is accumulating inside the ducts.

You should see my place. Split and almost every unit is leaking in a way or another. Ending up having external drain pipes:(((((

Alexa said No, that is not the reason ...

No, that is not the reason in my house.
They forgot to put some thingy in that keeps the gas from the toilts(drainge) leaking into the aircon pipes.
We are breating in "sh.t" literally every day!
Sorry about your prob, the housing situation is atrocious here in Qatar.

Novi, quite frankly, it is a total dump.
security is never at the gate, this guy is either at the gym ot proposing to some women, or playing soccer, the gates are always open, maintenance and workers live next to the pool, their laundry is hanging everywhere, maintenance hardly ever shows up to fix things, if they show up they cause more harm than good,no furniture at the pool, restaurant not operational, gym has no aircon, sauna and jacuzzi not working, cinema has live wires sticking out everywhere...shall I go on?
