Considering a rental from Philip James Lettings Didsbury?? BEWARE!!
Considering a rental from Philip James Lettings Didsbury?? BEWARE!!
You should always choose your letting agent with care. My experience with this company has been horrendous. Trying to extort money for "admin" (£150) this was to ring someone to clean a cupboard, although they haven't replied to my letter.
The staff in Didsbury - namely Danielle Beswick and her angry sidekick Nadia Fortune appear to be in control of the illegal withholding of deposits.
This story will continue until they repay my stolen money.
There is much more to come and leaflets are being prepared as a handout at their offices and through the doors of their available properties. In the meantime, choose you rental with great care.
Students in Manchester are particularly vulnerable to poor practice. If you have had a similar experience with this firm please post comments or contact me.
Your landlord or agent is only entitled to keep all or part of your deposit if they can show that they have lost out financially because of your actions, for example, if you have caused damage to the property or you owe rent. Ask your landlord or agent for a breakdown of the specific costs that they are taking out of your deposit. Your landlord or agent cannot keep your deposit to cover putting right normal wear and tear. There are rules on what costs can be deducted from your deposit.
if you cannot agree, the dispute will usually go to the county court.

Here is some advice from shelter:

How to get your deposit back - WITHOUT proof of bills
Miss-Fortune and Danielle Beswick from Philip James will try to insist you provide proof you have paid all your bills (probably a delaying tactic) to hold on to your cash. However you should !!
