Well did they or did they not?She and her husband didnt take a bond off my mum just a months rent in advance0 -
They did not when she moved in, once she had been in a while she asked if she could get a dog which they agreed to and asked for a dogbond incase the dog damaged / chewed anything which she didn't0

Just write to her.
Once you answer all the questions raised by people in this thread, and we've got a full picture, we can even draft it for you.0
