What is the difference between the Insured and Custodial schemes?

Insured Scheme – the agent or landlord holds the deposit for the term of the tenancy, and your money is protected by an insurance policy.


Custodial Scheme – your deposit is transferred to TDS, who hold it for the term of your tenancy.

?

Why can’t I manage my deposit if it is in an Insured Scheme?

In the first instance, you should agree the return of the deposit and any deductions with your agent or landlord direct. If you can’t agree on the deductions, click here to follow the process for raising a dispute.
