Deposit disputes in Luton — what you need to know
Thousands of tenants in Lutonlose part or all of their deposit every year — often unfairly. UK law is strongly on your side, but most tenants don't know how to invoke it.
Under the Housing Act 2004, your landlord must return your deposit within 10 days of you agreeing to any deductions. If they don't, or if they make deductions you believe are unfair, you have clear legal remedies.
A formal letter citing the specific legislation — written professionally — is often all it takes to resolve the dispute without court.
Your deposit must be returned within 10 days of agreed deductions
Deductions must be supported by evidence (inventory, photos)
Fair wear and tear cannot be charged to tenants

You can raise a formal dispute with the deposit protection scheme for free
