To date, we have only received part of our deposit back. The difference amounts to EUR 115. The landlord indicates that this is due to damage to the KPN cabling. However, we believe that we have not caused any damage and when leaving the building we also did a final round with the landlord in which he indicated that the delivery was neat. In addition, we were never given the opportunity to repair this 'damage' ourselves. Despite the fact that it is a relatively low amount, I feel quite screwed and I am therefore adamant that we will not leave it at that. Do you think it is worth taking legal action against the landlord?\n\n I look forward to your reply!\n\n  \u003ch4\u003eLawyer\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n If the landlord initially agrees to the delivery and later changes his mind, you can put the landlord in default to pay the entire deposit within a reasonable period, failing which you will take him to court. For more information or further assistance, you can contact me directly and free of charge.\n\n","brand":"Rechtswinkel.nl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55017689022813,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.rechtswinkel.nl\/en\/products\/vragen-43324-inmiddels-zijn-ik-en-mijn-vriendin-al-ruim-1-5-maand-weg-uit-ons-vorige-huurappartement-tot-op-hede","provider":"Rechtswinkel.nl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
