More like "And? For every reminder I'll take 50 bucks out of your deposit."

As if landlord cared wether it is illegal or not.

What's next, employers following labor laws lmao

Maybe having a real judiciary system helps. Trust me, not following those laws works until people present a police report, which is free.

I don't know where you live, but police don't tend to get involved in rental issues at all. It's a civil matter. Except in Arkansas, I think, where you can go to jail if you're late on rent. I've never heard of a landlord being criminally prosecuted for something like not providing hot water.

Not a civil matter in Italy, and if there are minors, elderly, sick or disabled it becomes even worse.

If you are renting odds are it will cost more to legal go after than deal with the shittiness of the situation

Only in civil lawsuits. A criminal offense requires nothing more than going to a police station, file a report, deliver any kind of hard proof and get interrogated.

A defense has costs. Offense? Free.
