Anyone had any luck? My most recent landlord did not protect my deposit and lied to me about it being protected so they've already broken the law.
When I asked repeatedly to see the certificate/proof I was told it went against the 'confidentiality' of the other housemates, yeah right .
I was told I'd receive my deposit 10 days ago and they told me the payment had already been 'processed' LOL yeah right.
I gave them until the 22nd to provide me some sort of evidence and they ignored it so I informed them I'd be taking them to court. They ignored that too.
The solicitors are working on my case now but I'm worried nothing will come of it. I have proof they did not protect my deposit and therefore broke the law so surely from that alone I'm entitled to a payout of some sorts?
It's disgusting, they never processed any damn payment at all. I'm really angry they've treated me like this and what worries me is that they'll probably do it to other people, especially those who are maybe less experienced in renting.
Has anyone ever managed to win a claim like this?
