Tenant-rights advice for Shafiq in London: a short consultation
Looking for housing-law advice in England: a withheld security deposit.
🇬🇧 England, United Kingdom406 views
My landlord in London has given me a withheld security deposit. I've read what I can online, but the rules are confusing and different sources contradict each other.
I'm hoping that someone with experience in housing or tenant rights in England could spare 20-30 minutes to explain the process, the deadlines and the documents I should collect.
I have my lease, all communications and photos organized. I'm happy to share them privately. I can't pay for a lawyer, so any guidance on free services in England would also be appreciated.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Kraków so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Cologne.
Hang in there, Shafiq. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.
thinking of you and your family, Shafiq. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too

Best of luck, Shafiq. Looking forward to the next update. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of London.
wishing you peace. Your post was clear and honest. After 15 years in logistics I know how hard it is to ask for anything
