“Lettings - DEPOSIT DEDUCTIONS BEWARE !!...”

I've been dealing with letting agents for 19 yrs and never had any deductions retained before. HB are without doubt the most unprofessional and dishonest.
They deducted monies totalling > £150 for cleaning and Council Tax at the end of the tenancy, despite the Council having reimbursed me for overpaying the tax when I left after giving the correct notice, which the "Protection" Service gave me back after deliberating for 2 months (& no doubt investing for extra interest !) saying HB 'had suffered no loss'. The cleaning deduction was a farce as the place was cleaner and tidier than when I moved in and despite the many photos I provided the amount was mostly retained by the "Protection" Service for HB. The repairs I reported on the Inventory when I moved in were ignored and I had to chase them and wait 6 mths to get them to do them, which they did. DO NOT TRUST THEM, THEY HAVE NO MORAL SCRUPLES AND LACK PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS, so much for the "protection" service !
Comment on agent fees
The fees were appropriate for a letting agent however they do as little as possible for those fees as any agent I have ever dealt with.

Just to update, we have today had our adjudication decision returned which found that Holland and Broadbridge did not complete satisfactory inventory checks on us leaving the property and are suspected of adding hand written comments to the inventory after we moved out - this evidence was then thrown out by the adjudicator costing the landlord £60... the fittings that they said were broken were proven to in fact be perfectly fine and thus HB lied...costing the landlord £40... the adjudicator a ...

Firstly I would like to say that I have rented out properties with Holland Broadbridge for 18 years and have found them to be fair with both tenants and landlords. This tenant wanted to give notice on the tenancy but was unhappy that I was not prepared to accept less than 1 months notice. All calls should have been to myself not Holland Broadbridge as they do not deal with the management of my properties. The tenancy agreement clearly states that all utility bills including council tax is the te ...
