• 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.

  • confirmation email from the scheme

    That probabkt counts as the requisite prescribed information. Your deposit is being held in a scheme, and you have been informed of that.

  • No, the information is meant to be more specific to your situation. Where in the contract it details deposit deductions, how to reclaim the money, etc.

  • Even if it doesn't give you a hard copy of any terms or conditions as per Muppeteer above and is outwith the prescribed 30 days?
