Sort of. There was a law created to protect tenants. And the court ruled that the Prescribed Information is "very important" as the Tenancy Deposit Scheme is a contract. Many landlords didn't or haven't complied with the law.
Muppetteer-
I'll buy you a beverage of your choice when I'm filthy rich from this.

I just looked and I didn't get anything apart from a confirmation email from the scheme over a month after I paid it, no t&c's or anything, but then I never got an inventory either and had a pile of the last tenants junk in the hall cupboard for weeks afterwards and his piano in my livingroom for months too.
I can't decide if scalping him for a grand and a half on account of the deposit scheme t&c's is justified, but there's plenty of other things that he didn't do with regards hygiene and condition of the flat that makes me think the money definitely is warranted... Like not being able to use the bedroom because it's so damp you wake up in the morning wheezing and sneezing. I'll wait and see how I feel after I vacate I think.

So if they don't send you a physical copy of the T&C you become cash rich? Nuts.
