I am 100% certain, I got a letter from the receiver last year to say they were taking over rent and it was to be paid to them.
Now he is asking me to pay 250 extra in cash or to a separate bank account. I don't like this as I will want to demonstrate consistent rent payment when I apply for a mortgage.. Any advice on this one?
Warp speed fast yes, but the ? might help BB with any libel actions if it turned out to be that the LL was kosherWhat Jim said.
I don't know why you put a question mark at the end of your header. It's blindingly obvious that he is trying to divert funds from his creditors.

If a receiver has been validly appointed, you should be paying the rent to the receiver and not to the landlord.
There is a real danger that the Receiver might come looking for the back rent from you since their appointment.

Up until now I've had a professional relationship with him, in the 4 years we have never needed any assistance and maintained the property to an excellent standard. I just don't want to be put in a position where we get kicked out for not accepting to pay an increase, but the increase he is pushing on us is unlawful to fill his pockets (imo).
I'm fairly sure he is in dire straights, in a conversation 4 months back he said that the bank pay him a very small living allowance.
Hi boardmember
Are you saying that the Receiver is asking for a cash payment?
Brendan
Absolutely boardmember. When a receiver is appointed by a Bank all tenants are officially notified of this. Your former landlord is no longer the owner of the property and you should have no further dealings with him as per the letter from the receiver. Ignore any requests for rent increases or payments to the landlord as the receiver is now your landlord.
Here is a document [broken link removed] (though it is from the banks POV)
