United Kingdom | 29 July 2021Avoid at all costs! Extremely poor from start to finish, my claim took over a year to resolve and I still haven’t been paid out. No communication, incorrect information given and multiple errors made throughout and lots of different people involved. Providing a legal service isn’t something this company is good at from my experience and I shall be seeking my own on the back of this! Long story short, recently I have received written confirmation from Robert my claim would be paid in full due to the time period elapsing for any response from the other party, only to be advised over a week later when the monies didn’t arrive they where to go back on the decision due to an error. Surely the time period, is the time period???? In fairness Robert did also send me a complaint form due to the way the account had been handled. Which I haven’t filled in. I was then advised I had 3 days to respond to this new evidence that appeared after the allotted time period had elapsed only to receive notification 2 days later from Joe that the case had been settled and closed. I still had 1 day of my allotted period and have evidence to back up my statements. Not only this but no challenge could be made to the outcome when I still have evidence proving my statements and I am still within the time period they have given to respond………Baffled! It’s not about the £150 in question it’s about the principle and correct manor to conduct yourself and your business. Total and utter disgrace I truly hope what goes around comes around.

United Kingdom | 27 July 2021Very poor service...I'm a landlord and would definitely not use this provider again. I would also discourage you from using them. The other two deposit providers offer much better customer service. I have spoken to three call handlers today and the last was really unhelpful and downright rude. Firstly, I was informed that my tenants deposit was not in fact registered with them. When I produced a membership ID as proof, this was not recognised by the online portal. The call handler asked if I came to use their service via Open Rent the online letting agency to which I replied yes. He said that I should try replacing one of the digits in the membership number with a number one and then it should work...what!? Anyway, it didn't work. I was then told that I would receive a call back within 3 days on the matter as there was a dedicated team that deal with Open Rent issues. I said I was unhappy to wait three days as I needed to get the deposit back to my tenants. The call handler said that there was nothing he could do as their SLA states that customers get a response within 3 days. He offered the worst customer service I have experienced in a long time. I've made three calls to them today and have got nowhere. The wait to times to speak to an operator have been long too so I feel I have wasted a lot of valuable time. I've used the other two deposit providers previously and they've been excellent. Avoid this company at all costs!!! One seriously annoyed customer.

Spain | 24 July 2021I agree with the Landlord who suggests we should be careful. I was in dispute with a tenant who left my immaculate place in a filthy state for me to return home to. Despite submitting substantial evidence versus the tenants zero evidence, I was awarded a paltry sum which didn't even cover the cost of window cleaning. I have questioned the decision but given the scheme states they will not enter into a dialogue, I am not hopeful.

Oliver
United Kingdom | 16 July 2021I was a tenant in a property where the deposit was registered with mydeposits. At the end of the tenancy I discovered several issues: 1) mydeposits had allowed my landlord to register the incorrect deposit sum. 2) mydeposits had cancelled my landlord’s account so our deposit was no longer protected but had told neither my landlord nor us, the tenants. 3) as our landlord had registered the incorrect sum I was unable to get any information from mydeposits online or over the phone until I made a formal complaint. They are charlatans. After coming up with a terrible set of excuses and a letter they claimed to to have sent when the account was cancelled (but which was created the day before they reply to my complaint) they refuse to enter further communication. What sort of a response is that to allowing my landlord to break the law by registering the wrong sum? How is it acceptable for a company to take so little care when they cancel accounts? How can a business be so flippant with complaints? Horrific people. Landlords; please, please avoid. UPDATE FOLLOWING REPLY: What is the point of a registry scheme that doesn’t verify the information provided to it? On the informing parties following cancellation, its my word against theirs as they clearly don't use recorded delivery if they sent the letter at all…

United Kingdom | 16 July 2021Be careful of using their adjudication scheme if you’re a landlord. My tenants did a runner leaving unpaid rent (also writing that they wanted to return the keys, there 'was no one living in the property' and making it clear they didn't want to be responsible for its security), and Mydeposits ruled against me (I had changed the locks as they hadn't left the keys behind as they said they would, and it was the first covid lockdown, so I couldn't go back and forth to the tenants' proposed appointments only for them not to turn up - so Mydeposits ignored Padwick v Punj, Artworld v Safarayan and Oastler v Henderson saying a Landlord could only change locks with a court order!!!!)) . MyDeposits then told me I could appeal via the courts, and after a couple of thousand of pounds in the courts, a judge explained that the court didn’t have jurisdiction, regardless of what MyDeposits thought. The arbitration was final regardless of whether it ignores the law. My deposits certainly don’t seem to understand the law and you’re stuck if you’re dependent on them. EDIT - Mydeposits have asked for the URN, but I've emailed them and they have continuously ignored my emails. The only reason they are writing here is to give the semblance of some sort of professionalism. There is none. I have written to them asking for the email address of their CEO as there is a valuable learning lesson their staff need to learn about their jurisdiction. I spent a lot of money and time finding out something about their jurisdiction that they should know.
