A report by the UK National Association of Citizens Advice Bureaux, Unsafe Deposit, published in June 1998, found that out of 446 CAB clients who had been charged a rent deposit in the last five years, almost half reported that their deposit had been unreasonably withheld by their landlord. A further survey carried out by the Office of National Statistics found that out of 332 people who had moved out of privately rented accommodation in the last five years, 22% were dissatisfied because the landlord did not return part or all of the deposit.
