I doubt whether you will see your money. I would get advice from somewhere. Listen to what the members have advised you to do.
report her to all authorities, I bet she not declared to council tax,dhss, tax ect
yes, I will first thing early tomorrow!! I have given advice from this, and she will surely regret everything she has done to me! I have all the necessary proofs and etc.
Good for you.
Everything is soooo disappointing really.
Where are you staying now? That is really awful! I can only hope for the best with your complaints to the authorities regarding this awful landlady!

...When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible...
I'm staying at my friend's house for a while although I already have a room for me to rent in 2 days.
We didn't have a problem for the past 4 months just that i didn't agree with her rising of the rent, it ended up into chaos. We have agreed last week that she will pay me with what was left and when I stayed at home last weekend, waiting for her, not a word from her.
She has played such a rude game, that I really want her to pay for this!
Even her family (who became close to me already) asked, what has happened, why it is like this, everything went soo perfect. Wellll.... I thought so too..... Damn, I trust other people so fast!
Don't forget to report the horrible cow.
There can be no excuse for such despicable behaviour.
She's not a landlady, just someone supplementing her benefits without declaring the extra income from the room.
Just phone the benefit fraud line.
If she has declared it, then she has nothing to fear.
To update:
I have found a new room in a very nice family. However, just recently my current landlady received an e-mail from my previous landlady. It was not sent particularly to her but I assumed, it was sent to all the spare room ads in my place.
This is how the letter looks like:

Do you think this is a criminal offense? She's so sick!
There was no police involved! Liar! Squatters? I always pay in advance! Arghh!!!
Can't read it but I guess she is being libellous about you I think it is a civil issue - might be worth taking it up with the website owners
"Hi I'm just trying to warn advertisers off a con artist through this site. Her name is __________ with a mobile number_________ They refuse to pay and become squatters, I have to involve police and am very distraught in my own home with two children under 5. I do not wish this on anybody"
Definite libel and defamation of character there. Stupid woman.
I suggest you call in at Citizens Advice Bureau for some FREE legal advice....taking a printed copy of the email/webpage.
...Plus any receipts for the rent you paid, etc.
Also, get straight on to the free benefit fraud line and ask them to check up on her.
She should certainly have been paying extra council tax, if there was more than one adult in the house, so you can call your local council's benefit fraud line too.
You can sue her for the money through the 'small claims' court. Very cheap, and they will advise you how to do it.
Don't forget to report her to the benefits people. They will accept calls without you giving your name or other details.
Neither does your info have to be accurate. They will just investigate.
You're welcome.
I used to be a Fraud Officer for the benefits people.
