I have spent this week reading through the messages from students who feel totally trapped by these unfair deposit retentions. Your stories are proof that this is a systemic crisis rather than just a few bad apples. I am busy drafting formal requests for the authorities to acknowledge these patterns and finally hold these landlords accountable.

Seeing this grow makes me think of every student I have talked to who lost their rent money to a landlord who simply refused to play fair. This momentum proves that we are tired of being treated like a bank account for people who exploit our need for a roof over our heads.

ABOUT TIME. Students get ripped off constantly because we dont know any better. Stop letting them steal our money.
My landlord kept 500 quid for 'cleaning' even though the place was spotless when I left. Total scam.

Finally. Renting in this city is a nightmare and these guys just take whatever they want from your deposit.
