Telling your landlord about a problem
Uy egasiga muammo haqida aytish
Siz xususiy kvartirada xona ijaraga olgansiz. Uch kundan beri isitish (boiler) ishlamayapti va issiq suv yo'q. Uy egasiga qo'ng'iroq qilyapsiz.
Maqsad: Muammoni aniq tasvirlang (nima, qachondan beri, nima qilib ko'rdingiz), xushmuomala, lekin qat'iy bo'ling va aniq muddat haqida kelishib oling.
Landlord: Hello, Mark speaking.
You: Hi Mark, it's Jasur, from the flat on Hyde Park Road. Is now a good time?
Landlord: Yeah, go on. What's up?
You: Sorry to bother you, but I'm afraid the heating's stopped working. And there's no hot water either.
Landlord: Oh no. Since when?
You: Since Sunday, so about three days now. I tried resetting the boiler like it says in the manual, but it just shows an error code.
Landlord: Right. Do you know which code?
You: I think it's F28. I've taken a photo of it, I can send it to you.
Landlord: Yeah, send that over. I'll try and get someone round next week.
You: Hmm, the thing is, it's getting really cold at night, and we can't shower properly. Is there any chance someone could come a bit sooner?
Landlord: Fair enough. Let me call my plumber and see if he can do Thursday.
You: That would be great, thank you. Will someone need to be in to let him in?
Landlord: He's got a key, but it's better if someone's there.
You: No problem, I'll make sure I'm in. Could you text me once you've confirmed the time?
Landlord: Will do. Sorry about that.
You: No worries. Thanks for sorting it out.
Maslahatlar
- Britaniyaliklar muammo haqida ham yumshoq gapiradi: "I'm afraid…", "Sorry to bother you, but…". Bu zaiflik emas, balki odatiy odob.
- Qat'iy bo'lish uchun baland ovoz shart emas. "The thing is…" bilan sababni aytish va aniq muddat so'rash eng samarali usul.
- Telefonda kelishilgan narsani keyin email yoki SMS orqali yozma tasdiqlang. Ijara bo'yicha nizolarda yozma dalil juda muhim.
- Isitish va issiq suv - asosiy ehtiyojlar hisoblanadi, uy egasi ularni oqilona muddatda tuzatishi kerak. Uzoq cho'zilsa, universitetning turar joy maslahat xizmatiga murojaat qiling.
