Common Mistakes Number 10 - Sum up.
Remember if it's not in black & white it didn’t happen. Get everything in writing, especially about payments, repairs or things you have agreed with the landlord & then keep everything. Just because you have moved out does not mean you could not still be taken to court.
I hope these tips have been helpful, if you have any questions or are having trouble with your landlord just drop us a comment.

Common Mistakes Number 9 - Not getting proof of rent payments in writing.
It's not about what happened, its about what you can prove. Get everything in writing, especially receipts for rent paid in cash. They don’t need a lot of detail on, just the amount, the date, the address & a signature.

Common Mistakes Number 8 - Only reporting issues on the phone.
When you have a problem in the property, report it, then report it again & again. Do it in different ways. A phone call is not reporting the problem, it is letting them know, you can never prove this happened or what was agreed. Of course you don’t want to harass them. Try reporting the problem by phone call, let them know you will also drop them an email detailing the issue & what was agreed in the call. After another two weeks do this again, a more formal email with the issue, make reference to the previous email. After 1 month we suggest writing a letter as well as sending an email, some Landlords will claim they never got the email.

Common Mistakes Number 7 - They told me I can decorate.
You move in the house is horrible, so you ring the Landlord. Can I give it all a brush of paint?" Maybe even put some new carpets in? “Yeah of course, sounds great!” So, you go ahead, decorate the whole place, it’s beautiful, much better than when you moved in.
Two years later you move out & there it is £600 from your deposit to repaint the house!! You will lose this. If you want to decorate or make any changes to the property, again you need to get this in writing from the Landlord, stating exactly what you plan on doing to the property & that this will not need to be changed back when you move out, get this signed & keep it.

Common Mistakes Number 6 - The Landlord told me I could stay for 5 years.
It doesn’t matter what they have told you, the fact is with renting you can be evicted at almost any time, for no reason. Provided they follow the correct process & provide you with correct notices, you will have to move out. So be aware, whatever they say to you, it is not legally binding.

Common Mistakes Number 5 - Stop paying your rent.
The house is covered in mould, the boiler stops working; these things are horrible & hard to deal with, but you cannot just stop paying your rent under any circumstance. If you do you weaken your position massively, you might well be able to claim all this back later but you cannot stop paying rent. If you are having problems with disrepair in the property & are getting nowhere with the landlord, contact your local Environmental health department they have lots of powers to force the landlord to make repairs.

Common Mistakes Number 4 - Throwing away your documents after you leave.
DO NOT DO THIS. Keep everything. In fact, take photos, save them on a laptop or on your phone in a file with the property name & keep the hard copies as well. The law lets housing cases be brought for up to six years for things like rent arrears & damage, if you bin everything & the landlord brings a claim later down the line you could be in a total mess. Remember, even if the landlord is lying you have to be able to prove this, keep everything!

Common Mistakes Number 3 - Moving out early without correct permission.
This is a horrible one. You think its all agreed nicely; the landlord says sure, you can move out, then later down the line you get a big bill for months of rent. You are liable for the full rent for the full period of the contract. If you are moving out early, get something from the landlord that states you are allowed to move out on X date & you will not be liable for any more rent at the property.

thank you so much for the help you gave too us to find out whether our deposit had been protected. They dealt quickly and were very thorough with our case would reccommend.Answer very promptly .

When I found the post on a facebook site, I thought I would give it a go as my deposit had been kept by my shifty landlady. Alan was great, got me in touch with the right people and after a few weeks and a couple of signatures, my deposit was returned. Amazing job, thought it would have been a lost cause, but no. Try these guys, they're great! (And I've just turned into Tony the Tiger!! )

We with the worst landlord going any way I phoned this company because landlord not protected our deposit we have a case very friendly staff would recommend them ��

They helped me a lot!

I can recommend them with no doubt.

We finally received our deposit back plus more because it was not protected. Thank you Tenant Angels �

These guys are literally amazing !!!! I highly recommend them - they completely sorted everything out for me and I had a cheque within weeks.



Cheers Guys

Thank you so much to Tenant Angels/Tanant Law and Boon Solicitors for taking on our case when our landlord never protected our deposit. Quick work on their behalf, and they were able to recover us a massive £3150! So many landlords are breaking the law and it's not fair to let them get away with it. They have responsibilities just as much as us. Thanks again for providing this service for everyone to use!

Thank you so much for getting a settlement for us, which was more than the initial figure ���

Our exlandlord tried to counterclaim for thousands of pounds of damage we didn't do, after they had already returned our deposit. They also reported us to the police for "hate crime", the PCSO who turned up didn't even take it seriously, but not nice thing to have on my record. It was a very bumpy and stressful ride for us, but we hope the exlandlord has learned from this and will treat their tenants with more respect in future.

Super happy with the service I have received. Stress free and kept in contact. Highly recommend

Just spoken with Christie who was extremely helpful and was excellent on the phone. I would recommend if you are having problems with your deposit to contact Tenant Angels as they take the stress away.

I went through tenant law uk when my landlord didn't protect my deposit and it was the best thing I did. They explained how things work and put me in contact with one of their solicitors. My case has now been to court and I won and I have already received my check. Thank you

I was dubious to do this as I had already been through a terrible time with my ex landlady and didn’t want any more hassle or stress but from the very beginning I had to do very little and my compensation was sorted quite quickly. I was kept up to date with the whole process and would recommend this company!

I can’t recommend this company more. When I moved out of my rented accommodation I realised that my letting agency had failed to protect my extra damage deposit, paid when I got my dog.

They were refusing to give it back to me and unaware of my legal rights I contacted Tenant Angels. It was the best thing I could have done. They talked me through step by step what actions I could take and they put me in contact with a solicitor who has just settled my case. Not only did I receive the damage deposit but I was also greatly compensated for my time and stress.

Thank you so much Tenant Angels!

Great company! Called up with a query and I have been given solid advice on how to proceed with recovering my deposit. Its a sigh of relief to have a company working to help you get your money back, rather than take it off you.

Got our money back plus a lot more. Very quick process for us and great result. Thank you so much. Would definitely recommend.

Found this service really good. Successfully claimed against our landlord for not protecting our deposit within the 30 days got a cheque through the post within 8 weeks :) super happy.

Christie from Tenant Angels called me straight away on a Saturday afternoon.

Christie has been very professional and has kept me informed of the process of retrieving my deposit both via email and telephone.

A highly professional and streamlined service I'd highly recommend.

Brilliant service. From start to finish they were in touch with me to update me about every little thing. Took 3 weeks from start to me receiving a cheque. Thankyou for your service

Brilliant service , our landlord didn't have our deposit in a secure holding and refused to pay us all our money back . This company spoke to us all the way through , told us what to do what to expect . We got back all our deposit and more . Was so simple and took all the hassle away from us dealing with it . Highly recommend .

We dealt with the old company name of tenant law uk. Very helpful and answering messages quickly. Our case went through to a lawyer who again was very helpful. However there were come discrepancies when it came to our actual case and the background checks had not been done correctly so although it appeared as though our landlord had not secured our deposit legally, they in fact had, as it was over 12 months since we left the tenancy. This resulted in the landlords lawyers saying we owed them money which our lawyers agreed they would cover themselves and we would not be liable for theirs or the landlords court fees. It had taken a year from the initial checks, to the information being realised and our case being cancelled. Hopefully this company has started checking properly but it just meant we had a year of extra stresses trying to deal with this when if it had been checked correctly to start with we wouldn’t have had the issues.
