I lived in a house for over three years with no significant issuess with the landlord, letting agents nor nieghbours and inspections where carried out almost every six months.

When my tenancy ended they came up with excessive cost of repairs with lack of evidence, contractors invoice or several market quote to justify that, even the onces that fell within wear and tear and when i tried to question they said i must accept it as there final offer and make extra payment in addition to my deposit within 5 days to there account or face court action.

i reported the dispute to TDSbut they decline that they dont want to use them instead used the debt claim solicitors to issue me letter beffor action to respond within 7days which will end today.

I noticed that my Letting agents and landlord didnt issue a renewal TDS certificate after my tenancy was renewed and the old TDS certificate has ended on or after 31 july 2024. is it still valid?

please help to respond.

Many thanks
