My landlord told me to download WhatsApp and I just said "nah I use email". Super easy cleared up in 5 seconds.
That's awesome. Sounds like you already had a lease signed. Now try that again when you're one of the 60 others applying to the house.
They'll rip up your lease on the spot for being difficult.
Nah I didn't. Have had it for jobs and stuff too. People are usually willing to do email if you ask.
If someone is unwilling to do business with you via email and require you to use WhatsApp then you dodged a bullet.
