Why scheme checks trip renters up
There are three approved deposit schemes in England and Wales. Your landlord could have used any of them, and a failed search on one does not mean the deposit is unprotected.
Name variations, address formats and tenancy date mismatches can all produce a false negative.
RentersProtect checks your tenancy against the deposit protection rules at no cost.
A record does not always mean compliance
Even when a scheme finds your deposit, the protection date, amount and tenant details may not match your tenancy.
A record that looks correct at first glance can still show late protection or incorrect information when reviewed properly.
Let us check it for you
RentersProtect checks all three schemes against your tenancy details and reviews what the records actually show.
You do not need to navigate three different websites or interpret the results yourself.
