*Ryan* Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 They say moving house is stressful, I can vouch for that now, what would you say is the most stressful part? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strix Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 the idiots in call centres that can't carry out simple change of address instructions ... that's if you don't include the removal men stealing some of your stuff (including random pieces of your Denby dinner service and the pan supports off the cooker ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffrey Shaw Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Also: the need to change everything such as mailing lists, landline telephone numbers [if area-based], business cards, etc. etc. And, just when you think that you've told/notified everyone who needs to know, some post goes missing or has to be redirected (because you forgot to tell its sender).

Strix Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 actually, the address change incident I was referring to was one where the idiot receiving the instructions actually closed the account concerned. My mother only found out when a letter arrived that'd been redirected by royal mail from her previous address Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me its the people around it, such as solicitors and estate agent that make it stressful.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Ryan* Posted March 1, 2012 Author Share Posted March 1, 2012 Er, you'd find it far more stressful without professionals on your side! Might be that, but when it feels like solicitors are dragging their heels its a bit of a pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
