So you were in shared accommodation or a sub let?

 

Sorry Leakie, didn't see your response.

 

I found a room using SpareRoom (so, shared accommodation), I went there and I liked it.

I stated very clearly that I wanted a written contract and an Assured Shorthold Tenancy contract.

That's what we signed, and after that I realised that this guy was living in the same flat (in another room), and that he is not the owner of the flat, he is at the same time renting the entire flat from an agency.

For this reason, I am not sure if my legal status was lodger or sub-tenant (our contract says clearly tenancy).

I am not sure if I can claim a compensation for not protecting my deposit in this case. As far as I know, every AST contract must have the deposit protect. This guy didn't do it, stole part of my deposit and we are going to court (next month is the hearing). The doc we signed says clearly AST. In any case, I will check this with a lawyer after I recover my deposit using small claims in court.

Any suggestion regarding this is welcome.

Thanks a lot for your help.
