I was about to smash my fist into the wall! But it helps me not to get paid my rent …
I’m so tired of hiding behind coronaepidemien. It is a free game for them, but what about us, who are dependent on the system? It is my home, is at stake!

Alternatively, I would address myself directly to the minister for employment Peter Hummelgaard in the mail: ministeren@bm.dk to get the answers to, which in these times can get help, if the municipality does not pay one’s performance? Especially when everything is closed, and no one takes the phone.

Further, I would advise you to contact your building society and tell them that the municipality has clocked in it, but enough to get your rent as quickly as possible – more so they don’t throw you on the street.
