At the NRLA we receive a lot of calls to our helpline from members who want to know the impact that an unprotected deposit can have on their tenancy, and particularly on evicting a tenant and serving a Section 21 notice.

The article includes useful tips and comment from both Suzy and Paul to underline certain situations.
