She rented the property without the bank knowing so our tenancy agreement isn't valid the bank now are repossessing the house , and we can not get the 2 months grace as we shouldn't be in the property even though our rent is paid in full till feb, the eviction is next week0

Are you sure the tenancy agreement is not valid just because the owner didn't have consent to let? If you still have an agreement, 'd definitely look to claim compensation, especially as you'll need a new deposit etc when you're evicted?0

the title of your thread was about the bond, you now say you are being evicted as part of a repossession. If you want decent advice then please set out the full details of your position, not drip feed critical details bit by bitlongtobefreofdebt wrote: »She rented the property without the bank knowing so our tenancy agreement isn't valid the bank now are repossessing the house , and we can not get the 2 months grace as we shouldn't be in the property even though our rent is paid in full till feb, the eviction is next week
there are loads of posts explaining what to do with unprotected deposits, just the same as there are regarding repossessions. Have you read them?0 -

1) You've already been told what to do about the repossession.
2) Re the deposit, read:
* Deposits: payment, protection and return
3) multiple threads on related issues are extremely annoying. Stick to one thread.
4)
In what way is the tenancy illegal?The property we were renting was being illegally rented to us0
