Jackie,(posted 7619 days ago)Take a look at this web page from Compactlaw entitled "Tenants of Mortgaged Homes" The situation is quite well explained there. It's possible you could sue for compensation according to their info. I would also contact your local council housing department and/or local advice unit.
The Compactlaw address is: http://www.compactlaw.co.uk/privhf14.html
Hope this helps, Good Luck.
