I have a new tenancy agreement that started on monday, I haven't moved in full yet as I am still using my old place til the tenancy is up on that one. I tried to tune a TV in that was plugged into the rooftop aerial but it didn't work. The TV is in good working order so I know there is nothing wrong with it. I also know that in the 5 days since my tenancy started there is no way I could be blamed for breaking it as I haven't even moved in properly.
I asked my landlord if they would be able to fix it for me, and they have replied that it is nothing to do with them. I have read the contract and the only way I can see to get them to fix it would be through the clause that says they have to "Renew any of the furniture and effects which shall no longer be of satisfactory quality"
Is it possible that the aerial is classed as an "Effect"? The dictionary defines it as personal belongings or goods, so would it fall under that?
