Hi! I am in a flat with a dryer and I’ve been living there like for 1.5 years. It had issues so they sent me a technician who wrote that it was the user’s fault if the interior was full of dust and caused malfunctions, which was the problem. As it is the user’s fault, I have to pay. Which is fair. Except I always do religiously the required maintenance according to the manual. As I know the former tenants were… problematic people who gave back the flat with a lot of issues (there was still their shit under the dryer for example btw, disgusting), yeah, pretty sure dusts accumulated and after 1.5 years it was enough to make the machine malfunction? But I really can’t prove it, I mean if it’s full of dust it’s full of dust. On the other hand it’s unfair to me that I have to pay that much money for “user’s fault” while I really take the maintenance seriously. Do I get a chance if I try to negociate something with property management? Thanks. submitted by /u/LesserValkyrie
