Today, my new landlord and lettings agent made an illegal entry into my house. Unfortunately, at the time my boyfriend was buck naked, smoking a joint on the sofa, surrounded by the cats we aren't supposed to have. FML

Today, I found out that my landlord had been showing my apartment to new tenants without telling me, when I woke up this morning to a family of four staring at me scratching my nuts whilst watching TV on my couch in my pajamas, horrified. FML

Today, police barged into my apartment for a drug raid, but they had the wrong address. They came in while I was naked on my couch and didn't even apologize for breaking my door. FML

Today, I returned from a week-long vacation. My landlord told me he had let my boyfriend in my apartment to get something. I don't have a boyfriend. Everything in my apartment is gone. FML

Today, I found out the day manager has been illegally entering my apartment when I’m not home. My car was in the shop, so when he saw my parking spot empty, he came right on in. I was just getting out of the shower and was standing stark naked. He didn’t even try to explain. Just smirked. FML

Time to move

Today, after taking a shower, I realised that my landlord was peeking in the whole time through broken ventilator. Once he tried to get into my room, using his keys. I couldn't tell the landlord's wife, as I didn't have any proof so I left the house, even though my rent was long due. FML

Some people just don't like surprises

Today, I went outside to smoke a cigarette. When I started to head back in, I saw a shadow move across my bedroom window. I live alone, so I waited outside and called the police. They came and investigated, only to drag my naked boyfriend out, where he promptly dumped me. I forgot our 2-year anniversary. FML

Today, I discovered that my roommate is a drug dealer and has been keeping her product in our flat. I discovered this when several police officers broke down my bathroom door and arrested me while I was in the shower. FML

Freakshow

By iheartnjdevils - This FML is from back in 2011 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, my landlord sent tree cutters to take down a tree in our front yard. I didn't realize their job included walking around the house and gratuitously staring at me through the window as I dressed. My boyfriend won't complain because he's afraid our rent will go up in retaliation. FML

It doesn't matter how many illegal things he was doing. Anything seen or any evidence was taken illegally and you cannot be prosecuted through it.

I had a landlord like that once. She would just come and go as she pleased without warning. You could be taking a shower and she would walk right in and "inspect" the house and walk right into the bathroom and try to talk about the house and other business. Should sue...

I'm not so sure about the UK but here in the U.S. you wouldn't be evicted since that was seen via an illegal entry. Since they wouldn't have seen that otherwise, and it wasn't apparently obvious, you'd get away scot-free because of some awkward technicality, essentially you can only be busted for the stuff they gathered legally. Then again, totally different country. Not the same, probably doesn't apply there in the UK

UK law allows a landlord to open the door, bit not enter, to call to a tenant, which may have let him see or smell the cats and dope. Or the stoned boyfriend may have yelled "come in" when they knocked, fml shows us people yell things they shouldn't out of habit with alarming frequency.

That law only stands for agents of the law, not homeowners. If I break into your home and find a bloody knife, I can turn it in to the police who can then use it to convict you. Because /they/ weren't responsible for the 'illegal search/seizure'.

Sounds like an episode of family guy... Except you're not supposed to do this in real life. You both deserve it 110%. Thanks for the laugh though. Lol :)
