blocked toilet! Andrex wet wipes - the culprit! How to unblock?

I rent.
I'd be to embarrased to get my landlord to fix it. I had the runs
yesterday and it's not a pretty site
ugh
So do I pay a huge call out fee & get it unblocked?
For a totally DISGUSTING picture of the problem, click he

Of course, whilst the OP was sitting on the toilet, he could have read
the packet of the wipes, which clearly (at least on the packet I have,
it does) that you should not flush down the toilet, but dispose of in
the bin.
House behind me (though their drain runs(sic) through my land) flushed a
load of wipes down their toilet. There were not pleased when I returned
them, along with the bill for my time and damage to my property.
Best DIY/Cheap solution appears to be to get your arm in a bin bag, then
remove the wipes from the toilet, including around the bend, and use
flexible netting wire stuff to poke even further.
