    I'd like to get some opinions on this if possible please.

    Yesterday I rang to make an appoint to view an apartment to share with one other person. So I'm going to see it tomorrow.

    The ad had been on daft for a good few weeks but I looked today just to have a quick look at the room again and she's taken it down already.

    I'm kind of wondering does the lady even want to share as I had rung on Monday and left a message but got no call back. I rang again yesterday just in case they didn't get the message blah blah whatever and she said the room was still available.

    So I'm gonna view it anyway but I'd hate to be in a situation where I'd move in and she'd change her mind 2 months later :eek:

    Ehh. I think she would have said 'its not available' if it wasnt available.

    Go see it. and best of luck.

    As far as I know you have to pay to advertise on Daft. If the ad had been up for "a good few weeks" maybe the subscription ran out and Daft took it down, not her.

    Went to see apartment....wow what a kip. I'll need to keep looking.

    Apparently on daft the ads need to be refreshed every week or so. Thats why it was gone :-)

    If an ad has been on daft for weeks then you can sure it's not worth your time.
