Assured Tenancy Financial References

[loring]

Hi

I intend to move to an Assured Tenancy accommodation at the end of September. The new letting agent has had references form my 2 previous landlords and a personal reference as well. My previous landlords have confirmed that I left them with no arrears.the rent was always paid in full and on time etc.

The new landlord now wants a financial reference and has requested me to provide him with full copies of my last 3 bank statements showing all monies paid into and out of my account along with details of where monies came from and where payments went out to.

I feel this over intrusive and have offered to provide the summary sheets of my statements which show the total monies into and out of the account but he says he wants all the detail of the payments. I am not happy about having to do this although I have nothing to hide. Should I ask him to obtain a financial reference directly from my bank.

I am not sure where I stand on this issue, can anyone offer any ideas on how to handle this.

Thanks

loring

Totally out of order, suggest he asks your bank for a reference.

Agree totaly intrusive.

employer ref should be good enough.
