Why do people estate agency's still insist on saying landlords reports they are eicr any one had similar problems

Perhaps they can only remember the last word. If they don't know it means the diy man that's been doing it up till now has not educated them.

A landlord's report, and an EICR aren't always the same thing. There's no legislative or regulatory requirement for an EICR to be carried out.

The landlord must maintain the installation to a safe standard, and they can demonstrate that by having it inspected. The inspection type and scope required isn'tspecified anywhere except possibly in the insurance requirements. That's why the pointless visual 'inspection' has come about, and it's also why you get drive-by EICRs.

A Landlord's Report would be an EICR where the reason given for the report is 'Landlord's Safety Report' or similar.

This is a private company- not a regualtory body.
It does not make any statements with regard to enforcement. If it was a government site it would be a .gov.uk ending
