    Which gives the tenant another 2 months......
    I make it 3 months - which could be stretched to 4. The LL will not discover that the tenant has ignored the S21 until after the end of the rental period - so that is a month to wait until the next s21 can be served. But tenant might not need to tell the LL that the first S21 was invalid until after court papers are served, doing that through court responses which could easily leave the LL another month adrift in working out that the deposit needs either to be protected or returned.

    Hi
    Sorry to butt in but I have a quick question
    We currently rent a house out.
    The tenants have been in for ages (before the deposit protection) they haven't signed any new contracts from there first one - do we need to have the deposit in a protection scheme ?
    Thanks
