I recall there has been a post or two previously in regard to WINZ tenants going into arrears, and as one of mine has just been served a 10 day notice by my PM, I wondered if I should dabble a little and contact WINZ directly to see if they can advise why the rent has stopped?
The tenant is not responding to txts from PM, but is aware of the notice (so I am told).
My understanding from the original PM when we took this tenant on was that he was on benefit redirection from WINZ for the rent monies.
I understand there has been some confusion here in the past re "redirection" and if it actually exists, but what are my chances being a LL finding out from WINZ directly if his payments have been stopped or if indeed it is a WINZ "computer" problem prior to the 10 days expiry date....
