We have given notice and are moving out in a couple of weeks.
I have been told by the agent that they hold the deposit, but it is registered with TDS (we have a cert)
This shocked me a little as I thought the whole idea was the TDS hold the deposit until any disputes are resolved.
I have heard this agent is a stickler on check outs and takes as much deposit as they can get away with, so what happens if we want to dispute anyting with them?
Thanks

There is quite a lot of information on the TDS website that might be worth a read.0 -
TDS is an insurance-based scheme where the deposit is registered with them but the funds never physically leave the landlord/agent's bank account.0
