giving lodger deposit back

I think I'd try going to where he works if it's local, and drop in a note asking him to contact you as address got lost. Just my two cents.

To clarify, lodger/tenant application forms ask for information including full name, NI number, car registration number, date of birth, employer details and next of kin, plus photo ID.

This means in the event of someone doing a flit owing arrears, it is much simpler to trace them since this is key information to hand over to a tenant tracing service for a modest fee to track them down in order to take them to court and get an attachment order from the employer should judgement be made in the landlord's favour and they refuse to pay.

As you have a written agreement with him and he seems not to have given you proper notice to leave, you can calculate how much rent he owes you and give him back the balance if you wish.

Write to your lodger at the address he was renting from you. With a bit of luck he has arranged for his mail to be re-directed to his new address.

absolute flipping genius! :beer: Why didn't I think of that? I received a letter from Royal Mail saying his mail was being redirected but in the where to box it said it was confidential. That would be a sure fire way of getting in touch. thanks very much
