Hi,
I'm a landlord and now also a tenant.
I follow the law regarding deposit protection.
I started rented a house 8 months ago under a standard assured shorthold 6 month tenancy and paid 1k deposit. Received the usual letter of deposit protection etc.
Then, this week received a letter from the deposit protection company advising that my landlord had taken back the 1k as the tenancy had came to an end.
We are still living here, and no plans of moving yet, nor have we had any reason to think the landlord wants us to leave.
Have messaged landlord and no reply yet.
Just wondering if anyone can shed any light on what may be going on and if the landlord is legally allowed to do this.
I have paid my rent on time every month.
Thank you
