Re: URGENT HELP, HUGE DEPOSIT PAID, renter is trying to take the deposit for sublet
Even through reputable companies, it can take weeks and weeks to get your deposit back
sometimes damage done in the flat does not become apparent until 30 days after the new tenant has moved in, if it is not reported within the 30 days then the "problem" is then for the new tenant
I would send him a registered letter asking when the appartment will be evaluated and deposit returned. Yes, you have made mistakes but your contract and receipt should be enough to prove that he owes you the money.
Wait for his written reply and give him time to keep to his word. It does sound as if it was processed wron, but this doesnt mean he is a con-man. Just give it time
