I have just received the breakdown of the service charge for my flat. One of the items is 'Paladin hire'. I looked up paladin in my dictionary and it said it was a Medieaval knightly-hero! I think the word must have another meaning - any ideas?

Other than finding several lists relating to a 'Hero', a Paladin Hire could be speaking to you as a new customer also to set a history of the place you are now in with a cost variable of payments to debt ratio. One source is listed below and also in Wikipedia while searchin out other meanings in this area. I have another email address that also uses the name Paladin' which I've taken from 'Have Gun Will Travel' and a fictional book I read.

Paladin is an E-mail client for Windows NT and 95. It uses a new protocol called IMap4revl and allows you to manage and access E-mail on a mail server. This program can be used with Gatorlink E-mail services. The program can be freely used by faculty, staff and students of the University of Florida. At present, Paladin does not use POP3.

Does it have something to do with services disposing of trash or refuse? I did an internet search and found this website with a list of services.
"2.11 Refuse
Includes paladin hire and refuse chute clearance."
Not exactly sure what it means but I tried. Looks like it is referring to a housing contract of some sort. You can always ask the company exactly what is meant by a "paladin hire".

A paladin is a holy warrior. Half Knight half Priest. Take King Arthur and the pope, mix them together and you have a paladin. They always fight for the good against evil etc....

Paladin may be a staffing company, like a temp agency. Perhaps someone was hired to clean or service your flat ?

A paladin is loosely a medieval person, who only does what is just and good. This is from reading fantasy books for years.
