"It's a play on words that is real, unfortunately", as Nacho Abad has defined it in the Cuatro program En boca de todos. A man has denounced the occupation of his house by the same company that had previously been in charge of vacating it, and what the Mediaset space has echoed.
His name is Guillermo López and he has a house in the Lavapiés neighborhood, in Madrid. A few months ago, he found that a girl to whom he had previously rented the apartment through Airbnb became a squatter during the pandemic. Faced with this problem, he decided to hire an evacuation company to kick her out and get her house back.
"This company was recommended to me on a platform of those affected and victims of the occupation," he assured, something to which he had to resort due to the absence of "legal tools" to recover his home. After evicting the squatter from the home, reaching an "agreement with her", problems began with the company he hired.
It all stems from the tactic the company used with Guillermo to continue providing services to him after he was vacated. "That same night I was very traumatized, and I continue to be traumatized by the issue of the occupation. They suggest that they need a headquarters in Madrid for their company, that they have it there in my house," he continues recounting.
"I was not very amused," he confessed, but ended up accepting the proposal of the desokupa company. "I made them a six-month contract. From the beginning the payments were bad, always asking them, always humiliating me," he assured in On everyone's lips.
These problems with paying the rent for his home were the trigger for what finally ended up happening: the occupation by the same company that had been in charge of evicting a squatter. "In September they pay, October arrives and I tell them that they have not paid me. And he tells me that he has done some works that I had not authorized," he said.
Asked by Nacho Abad from the set of the Cuatro program, Guillermo has confessed the amount of money the company owes him. "About 12,000 euros or so, and it goes up every day," he said.
"I have sent them a contract termination. I want the apartment, because I need it, and what I did to be able to live was to come to the south," he continued, about where he is while his house is still occupied. Finally, Abad has reminded him of the "threatening messages" that the company has sent to the owner. "I'm afraid," concluded Guillermo López.
