Yah', but I'm still here, I donno if the deposit is with the landlords or the agent.
If it's with the landlord, then it's all good, if it's with the agent, then I'm not so sure.

I think
it's supposed to be with the agent. The rules are supposed to protect tennants from unscrupulous landlords. When did you hand it over?

About 26 months ago.

If it is after 2007 you're protected by the tenant deposit scheme

Will that not mean
the letting agent is responsible and holds it?

It gets held in a government licensed escrow account i think

In theory then
if the landlord knows the details of this one should be laughing teacakes.

If he doesn't one will have to track down the now defunct letting agent?
