I keep having this error
I've seen other questions been answered by using textLabel.text, but it doesn't work in my case
I'm new to swift so could someone please explain me why and how to solve this.

You need to unwrap textLabel by using an ! after textLabel.
textLabel
!
This is because textLabel is an Optional (hence the textLabel? type instead of just textLabel). Read more about optionals here.
Optional
textLabel?
Hope that helps!
