check your contract...sometimes you are not allowed to work from your flat.

Regarding my contract, this is why they don't know I work from this address. That's why I'm asking if there is a way I can be compensated without drawing attention to myself.

I'm no expert but I would have thought that there is no way to obtain compensation when you are not 'officially working there' without drawing attention to yourself.

Unfortunately.

Unlikely - I mean you won't get the amount of a 2 hr booking
You can claim but from what it it says below you will get ?20 max maybe ?40 if they haven't paid you within a month .

The block where my flat is  had a leak which resulted in really really low pressure which meant the shower would not heat up and you could only get cold water back in the summer

Several of us in the block replaced the actual shower units thinking that was the problem 😂 Only to find out that nothing had changed
 It cost me Over ?500 for a new shower unit plumber & new tiles plus at least a a min of a grand a week in lost bookings as I couldn't work without a shower

I was without a shower for over a month,  others about 2 months because it was a stand off between the water board and the council who still maintain the block even for the ones like me that own the flat .
In the end I got the water board to do a emergency check by telling a few white lies  and got the job  number to give to the council .

It turned out that The leak was the councils problem and the water board did fine them several thousand pounds  because of their stupidity and because they didn't get fixed within the required 7 days

But none of us got and refund to be honest I didn't even think about asking for it just put down to one of those shit happens things

to me i can t claim nothing as i should not work in my flat.
Can happens if there are big issue and you can not sleep to yours, maybe landlord should pay you same fees as refund for hotel.
( i am absolutely not an expert )

Shit.  If I'd had that kind of hassle then I definitely would fight for compo.  Councils think they're a law unto themselves.


Water finally came back on around 1pm, and luckily for me my 1pm was able to shift things around and travel down to see me for 3pm, so all was not lost in the end.  Just couldn't afford another day off without water like yesterday.
