I recently moved out of my property & my letting agency has said that replacement carpets & cleaning is required so they are refusing to repay my bond of £500.
When I first moved into the property, I was told my the lady who showed me round they would replace 3 of the 4 carpets because they had paint, stains & a foul smell + re tile my bathroom which had broken & missing tiles. None of which happened like once I had signed they didn't care. The house was in poor condition but during my stay I purchased decent carpets for all the rooms. Decorated & repaired damaged walls, tiles not to mention spending a good chuck of money on having some walls re plastered that had blown & falling off the walls that my landlord claimed way own fault. I don't think having plaster stuck to the wallpaper that came off when taking off the wallpaper my own fault.
Anyways, the house was left clean & in very good condition as I took care of my home. But my letting agents are claiming they need to do this & that even though I know this to be a lie!
What can I do?
