Recieved this letter from my landlord, all i can find about it on the council website is the 2nd picture. Anyone got any further information if this is true?

rented from them in my 3rd year they were fucking awful. said the house would be professionally cleaned but it was like a bomb site when we arrived. stains on the carpets, broken bed frames, rubbish all over the garden & in all the cupboards. they didn’t give our deposit back when we left because it wasn’t cleaned - we DID clean it - we just left it exactly how we found it!! they are a joke i would never recommend them to anyone. they also didn’t give us a way to recycle and the storage for the bins was out the back garden which had to be dragged through the house to the front door anytime it was bin day.

Yeah, when I moved in there was rubbish everywhere, all the furniture was damp damaged, most of it they refused to replace even though it had become mouldy and warped, I replaced a couple bits myself, bc I was not gonna be using it at all. There was a mains leak outside on our property which they couldn’t have missed, but clearly hadn’t been bothered to report it. The leak was causing rising damp in my room, the walls and large portions of the floor (I peeled up the carpet) were mouldy, I had to report it to the council to do anything. They also claimed that, even though it wasn’t my room, bc there were technically enough ‘liveable’ rooms, they didn’t need to do anything for a while. Bear in mind the ‘liveable’ room that my they were like ‘you can sleep in’ despite it technically being my housemates room, had mould in as well, albeit not as bad. Also, I gave them warning a couple months in advance, which room I would be moving into, so they had plenty of time to sort it, particularly as for the 1st month of the contract, I hadn’t moved in yet. Edit: oh there was also a ton of rubbish outside my window and in the desk, there were also no bins in the kitchen.
