A clearer route
What may help next.
Build a simple timeline
Keep the tenancy start, deposit payment, protection and information dates together so they can be compared accurately.
Do not rely on one document
Certificates, scheme records, messages and payment evidence may each provide part of the picture.

Claims Bridge can help identify whether the circumstances are suitable for further assessment. It does not predetermine an outcome.
Keep the position balanced
A possible issue needs a proper assessment.
Claims Bridge focuses on potential tenancy-deposit protection issues. Other housing or deposit disputes may need a different route. Claims Bridge can help organise a preliminary picture and, where appropriate, support the next stages. It does not establish liability or guarantee an outcome.
