Nonworking refrigerator for 17 days by FrancophileDavid
I rent a furnished house in the casbah in Rabat. When I woke up Thursday, August 5 I found the refrigerator was not working. The landlady lives in Sale and I have never met her. I pay the rent to her brother, Maati, who lives next door to me. He ...

Well Maati just came to check on the refrigerator, after three messages from me and a phone call from Nabil. He asked if I open the freezer a lot and I said no only a couple times a day to take out some meat. He said the refrigerator is set on high. ... Read More

I don't believe it!! The "repaired" refrigerator stopped working overnight--thirteen days after it was brought back!! I had to pour a liter and a half of milk down the drain this morning. Read More

I get the feeling that Maati doesn't want to talk to me. When he brought in the refrigerator he spoke very coldly to me. When he has passed my house the past few days and has seen me through the open door, he has just given me a cold stare. I ... Read More

Maati finally brought back the refrigerator, only 20 days after it stopped working and 6 days after it was taken away to be repaired. He told me not to plug it in for two hours, something about the gas needs to circulate, but the gas cannot ... Read More

I have lived here since November 4, 2020. The lease says I may be held responsible for major repairs. i don't think repairing a refrigerator that was not in good working order before I moved in can be my responsibility. Less than a week after I ... Read More

About three hours ago I sent Maati a message and asked him why he has not fixed the problem. Of course, I have received no response. He seems to be avoiding me. I have some news==some good, some not so good. About an hour ago Nabil brought me his ... Read More

I paid the rent for August on the fourth so I cannot withhold rent until next month. If I have to endure this for even two more days I may do something drastic, not to even think about what I will do if it continues until next month. I am desperate ... Read More

Moving is an option but it will take time to find a new place and I cannot deal with this situation one day more. I need to have a refrigerator today. As I said, the diet I have been following for a couple of weeks is seriously effecting my health. ... Read More

Urgent Advice Needed on Renting in Rabat, Morocco by FrancophileDavid
I have been living in a hotel in the medina for quite a while now, but I may have the opportunity to move. When I was on the bus from Fnideq to Rabat in late August, I got into a conversation with a woman. She said she could find me a furnished ...

Joe Chem, Thanks for your help but I may have a place to stay soon. I was at a café Saturday night with a friend and a friend of his joined us. The man works at some ministry in the government but I don't remember which one. My friend sent me a ... Read More

Thank you. I spoke to the woman on Wednesday morning. She was with her sister who has a room for rent in her house in Temara. It will cost me 1500DH a month which is not much of a savings over what I am paying at the hotel in the medina, plus I will ... Read More
