I am single and over 50 so I swapped my very big three bedroom home for a lovely 2 bedroom by answering an add in my local paper. We had to fight the local office but we knew our rights and they eventually gave in. Go the old fashioned way and put an add in the local paper of where you want to go to.

Recently I approached HNSW to say there is a swap letter generated by the HNSW system, out there, with my details on it, which other tenants receive but I never ever do. I asked one prospective swapper to photocopy the one she used to phoned me from, and she did.
