Helpful staff

I had a problem with negotiating the website and then needed to amend something. I emailed the company and both times, received prompt replies which resolved my issues which put my mind at ease.

Absolutely atrocious service from Sharon

Keeps getting removed as if we don’t have a say in expressing our feeling towards this organisation, and overall service !

Review should not be deleted !

Went back to the phone and to say the experience and over service received by that so called self serving manager Sharon was beyond pathetic and horrendous. How does an organisation like this employ such a poor serviced individual like this is beyond me. Avoid at all cost!

Our deposits are never safe

Had a dispute with my landlord/agent over a “dirty” oven and a scratched windowsill. I provided evidence, including a video taken on move-in day showing the oven in the same condition as at check-out. Because the file was too large, I had to upload it to YouTube, which removed the date metadata.

The oven was clean but old, and the windowsill had scratches (not dirt). I didn’t note these in the inventory at the time, and since there were no photos or mentions of them, my evidence was basically ignored. The windowsill wasn’t listed at all, so it was treated as if it was in perfect condition.

Even though I submitted more evidence than the landlord, they still awarded 60% of the disputed amount to them.

This raises a concern: is it really the tenant’s responsibility to document every single imperfection in a property? In an old home, some level of wear and tear is expected. However, it seems tenants are expected to identify and record every scratch or mark in detail, or risk being held liable later.

Seems like some landlords/agents take advantage of weak inventories, knowing deposit schemes often favour them if tenants haven’t documented everything.

Resposta da Deposit Protection Service

Hi, we’re sorry to hear you’re unhappy with our Dispute Resolution Service. Adjudicators are independent and make their decisions based on the evidence received from all parties. They must be persuaded “on a balance of probabilities” that a tenant has breached the terms of their tenancy, and that the landlord or letting agent has suffered, or is likely to suffer, a loss as a result. They also must take into account other factors such as fair wear and tear, remedy type and residual value.
If you believe the adjudicator has made a factual or legal mistake with the decision they’ve reached, please raise a complaint within 3 months of the date the decision was issued using one of the following options.
- Call us on 0330 303 0030
- Email us at contactus@depositprotection.com
- Send us a direct message on X at https://X.com/the_dps, or on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/DepositProtectionService/

Their website is a problem- regularly can't access it. Life's too short for poor tech.
