Current Events > The real estate fucked up the address of my rental

(+) Yeah! (+)

I've been moving into a new place recently, and it has been impossible to get electricity connected. The issue is that I share a building with a kebab shop - which would normally be the opposite of an issue, because I live above a fucking kebab shop, but the issue stems from the address. The address of my unit is the same business address of the kebab shop.

So when I go to get power supplied, the power meter is flagged as a business meter. And so it should be - it's the kebab shop's electricity meter.

So what in the fresh hell is up with my meter?

Well, I got the meter number from the real estate, and after work today I got onto a power company to get my shit hooked up. I gave them the meter number and the address - and fuck, the meter isn't attached to my address. It's attached to a building four doors down.

So I google this new address. A bunch of the results are for a telecommunications place, think an AT&T store, but there's one real estate option for a property that's off the market.

I click on the real estate page, and it has a 360-degree photo of my unit.

So my current real estate may have fucked up the address of where I live.

I've already signed paperwork, and I'm getting internet connected in September. If the address is wrong, we might have to sign a new agreement and shit. If they try to con me out of another two weeks rent in advance I'm gonna be pissed.

tl;dr: found my unit on an old real-estate website under a different address, because the one that my landlords gave me wasn't returning an electricity meter that I could use. I might have to sign a new contract and go through all this shit again.
