Scammers! I fled a domestic violence incident 5 years ago, they have now taken charges from me for a previous partners tenancy after my card details were used, I am not on the tenancy, I was not a tenant - I have been hounded via email and recieved threatening texts, it has affected my mental health and I will be taking further action!

Vinita, we don't have any record of you on our database and no staff member, at any office, has any recollection of the name or of dealing with you. If this is a genuine review, I would ask that you make contact with the office and we will gladly looking in to any issues you may have.

Broken software, unethical billing, terrible support. The product didn't work, they refused to refund, then kept charging me after I cancelled. When I raised my legal rights, their rep Aidan just copy-pasted the same response. Currently disputing with my bank. Avoid.

Avoid - Zero Transparency and Predatory Fees Stay far away from Reposit and opt for a proper government-approved deposit scheme instead. After my tenancy ended, they charged me £400 for alleged cleaning and redecoration costs, yet when I requested proof, receipts, or any breakdown of what this money was actually spent on, they had absolutely nothing to provide. It feels like they simply invent these charges once you've moved out to extract as much money as possible from tenants, with zero accountability or evidence to back up their claims. The dispute process is equally exploitative. To challenge any charges, you have to pay £60 just to submit a message through their website portal. This "pay to complain" model creates a barrier that discourages tenants from disputing bogus fees, making it clear they prioritize profit over fairness. Paying that final amount felt completely wrong given the total lack of transparency. Reposit operates like a scam setup rather than a legitimate deposit protection service. Protect yourself from this stress and potential financial loss by choosing a traditional deposit scheme where your money is actually protected and you don't have to pay extra just to question unfair charges.

Hi Kunal, We’re really sorry to hear that you feel disappointed by your experience, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. We’d like to clarify a few points about how Reposit works and how charges and disputes are handled. Reposit is not a deposit protection scheme — it’s an alternative to paying a traditional tenancy deposit, which tenants choose freely when they sign up. Tenants remain responsible for any legitimate end-of-tenancy costs outlined in their tenancy agreement, such as cleaning, damage (beyond fair wear and tear), or unpaid rent. Landlords are required to submit supporting information when raising charges, which we then share with tenants through their Reposit account so they can review and respond. If a tenant disagrees with a charge, there is a structured process to challenge it. This includes the opportunity to propose an alternative settlement directly with the landlord and, if the matter remains unresolved, to refer the dispute to an independent third-party adjudicator. The £60 adjudication fee covers the cost of this independent review and is fully refunded if the adjudicator determines that the dispute is valid and reduces the claim. We take concerns about transparency seriously and want every customer to feel informed and treated fairly. With that in mind, and knowing that we have already discussed the process with you, should you need any further clarification please feel free to reach back out to us. We genuinely value feedback, as it helps us improve our service and ensure our processes remain clear and fair for everyone involved. Kind regards, Reposit Customer Support Team

Scum company. Not sure what the adjudicators do for a living, but some of the move-out charges we were hit with were absolutely extortionate. I’m talking 10x standard rates. We provided loads of evidence — links, screenshots, actual prices showing how much items really cost — and Reposit still sided with the landlord. They’ll “reduce” charges but only down to 5x or 6x the real cost, like that’s reasonable. It honestly feels like landlords and letting agents know exactly how this works and just inflate prices like crazy because they know Reposit will still approve it. £110 for four light bulbs, reduced to £60. Absolute joke. When you dispute the charges, if you put a figure lower than a certain percentage, the system literally suggests you raise it so it’s more likely to be accepted by the landlord. That alone tells you everything. The whole thing is clearly set up in the landlord/agent’s favour. I know at least 10 different people/couples that have had bad dealing with this company. This system is being used by letting agents to scam people out of money. Just pay a normal deposit — don’t deal with this scum company.

Hi Ryan, Thanks for taking the time to share your experience. We’re really sorry to hear how frustrated and let down you feel — that’s not the experience we want anyone to have with Reposit. To clarify a few important points: charge reviews are carried out by independent adjudicators, not by landlords, letting agents, or Reposit staff. Their role is to assess the evidence provided by both parties and determine what they believe to be reasonable based on market rates, invoices, and the tenancy agreement. We understand that, even when a charge is reduced, the outcome can still feel unfair — particularly if it doesn’t align with prices you’ve found elsewhere — and we appreciate how upsetting that can be. Regarding the dispute process, the system does not force tenants to increase offers, nor does it determine outcomes based on percentages. Any prompts shown are intended to help users understand what landlords are more likely to accept in a negotiation context, but they do not influence an adjudicator’s independent decision. We strongly reject the idea that the system is designed to favour landlords or agents, or that it’s used to “scam” tenants. That said, we recognise that trust is built on experience, and it’s clear we’ve fallen short for you here. Feedback like yours is taken seriously and is used to improve both our processes and how clearly we explain them. If you’re open to it, we’d really appreciate the chance to look into your specific case in more detail. You can reach our support team at hello@reposit.co.uk, and we’ll make sure it’s reviewed thoroughly. We’re sorry that the outcome of the dispute did not align with your expectations, but we thank you for speaking up. Kind Regards Reposit Customer Support Team

My experience with Reposit Group has been deeply troubling and highly distressing. The company presents itself as a “no-deposit” alternative, but in reality, this appears to be a system designed to gain access to customers’ bank details from the outset and later impose disputed charges without proper transparency or due process. In my case, Reposit took my bank details at the beginning of the tenancy and obtained consent through a complex and unclear online process. Toward the end of the tenancy, they raised what I believe to be unreasonable and unjustified charges and withdrew £1,800 directly from my bank account without my prior knowledge or agreement. Despite this, they are still attempting to recover additional funds and have escalated the matter by passing my details to a recovery agency, creating further stress and financial pressure. At my previous property, a toilet pipe leak caused damage to my household items. I informed the relevant parties including landlord and replaced damaged items at my own cost, providing receipts as evidence. However, they refused any compensation and advised that I must pursue legal action to recover my losses—while they themselves removed money from my account without going through any comparable legal process. This double standard is extremely concerning. The company’s operations lack transparency. There is no clear contact telephone number, no easily identifiable physical address, and communication is limited to email responses that are often delayed and unprofessional. This makes it very difficult for customers to resolve disputes fairly or promptly. Based on my experience, I would strongly caution others to carefully review Reposit’s terms and conditions and their digital process before engaging with this company. What is marketed as a convenient alternative to a traditional deposit can, in practice, leave tenants feeling trapped, powerless, and financially exposed.

Hi Jafar, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re very sorry to hear how distressing this situation has been for you, and we appreciate the opportunity to respond. Reposit is designed to be a regulated alternative to a traditional cash deposit, with the aim of reducing upfront costs for tenants while still providing landlords with protection. We understand, however, that when disputes arise—particularly around end-of-tenancy charges—this process can feel frustrating and overwhelming. To clarify a few points in general terms: - When a tenant signs up to Reposit, consent to the payment method and dispute process is provided through our digital agreement, which sets out how and when funds may be requested if a claim is raised. - Any charges claimed at the end of a tenancy are first raised by the landlord or agent and are subject to evidence and a defined dispute resolution process. Tenants are always entitled to challenge a claim, request an independent review, and provide their own evidence before a final outcome is determined. - Recovery action is only considered where a balance remains outstanding after these processes have concluded. That said, we recognise your concerns about transparency, communication, and how this has been handled from your perspective. This is not the experience we aim to provide, and we take feedback like this seriously. We are continuously reviewing how we explain our terms, improve accessibility of our support channels, and ensure customers feel informed and treated fairly throughout the tenancy lifecycle. Because Google is a public forum, we’re unable to discuss the specifics of your case here. We would genuinely like the opportunity to review what has happened in detail and address any misunderstandings or issues. Please contact our customer support team directly via the email address associated with your Reposit account, quoting your Google review, so a senior member of the team can look into this for you. Thank you again for raising your concerns. We value this feedback and are sorry for the stress this situation has caused you. Kind regards Reposit Customer Support Team

We have been unable to access the software for 36 hours, which has completely disrupted our operations. This has left us unable to process rents or pay our clients, causing serious financial and reputational issues. Despite repeated attempts to reach out, the company has flagged the issue as “minor” and shown no urgency to resolve it. To make matters worse, we cannot speak to anyone on the phone as all calls go straight to voicemail. Communication is virtually non-existent, and the lack of support is unacceptable. We cannot recommend this company to anyone looking for reliability or accountability.

Hi Matthew, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re truly sorry for the disruption you experienced and understand how critical uninterrupted access is for your operations. After investigating this matter thoroughly, we found that the issue required a configuration change on your side, which was confirmed and resolved following direct communication with your team. The ticket was then closed with agreement from your representative. We also want to clarify our escalation process. While the ticket was initially logged as low priority by your team, once we became aware of the severity through your review, it was immediately raised to the highest priority and addressed as quickly as possible under our standard SLAs. Our specialist teams and managers were engaged to resolve the issue promptly and ensure your systems were protected. We appreciate that the situation caused frustration, and we take your concerns about communication seriously. Your experience does not reflect the standard of service we aim to provide. If you’d like to discuss this further or share additional feedback, please reach out to us directly via the 'Customer Feedback Cycle' option - when logged into the portal, you can click on the feedback option in the top panel. We value your partnership and hope we've restored your confidence in our service.

STAY AWAY! DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY Awful company. Now they are threatening CCJ’s and solicitors for £60! I couldn’t live in the property as it was so uninhabitable. They had a full months rent out of me and my weeks deposit and I couldn’t live in the property! Claiming their terms and conditions mean they can treat you this way! DISGUSTING COMPANY.

Hi Kerry, We’re sorry to hear how difficult your experience with the property was, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your concerns. We want to clarify that the charges you’ve mentioned were not issued by Reposit. They were submitted directly by your letting agent, and Reposit is required to process the information they provide. As we explained in our email correspondence, we cannot negotiate or amend charges on a landlord or agent’s behalf, nor can we comment on the condition or management of the property itself. Reposit did make the formal dispute option available, which does allow tenants to challenge any charges raised. As this wasn’t completed within the dispute period, the charges were automatically deemed accepted under the terms of the Reposit service, and we are now obligated to pursue them. We understand this situation has been distressing, and we are genuinely sympathetic to the circumstances you described. While we must follow the process fairly for all parties, we are always willing to help you manage repayment which would stop further action to recover the funds. If you would like further support or clarification, please reach out to our team at hello@reposit.co.uk and we will do everything we can to assist. Kind regards Reposit Customer Support Team

Extremely Unfair Experience With Reposit – TENANTS BEWARE! PLEASE NOTE: If you experience the same unfairness that I did, I STRONGLY recommend reporting it to the Property Ombudsman and relevant Redress Scheme. These bodies investigate procedural unfairness, and the only way companies are held accountable is when tenants file complaints. It doesn’t change your individual outcome, but it helps expose patterns of tenant mistreatment and can lead to systemic change. I used Reposit instead of a traditional deposit scheme because my landlord required it, and my experience has been extremely disappointing and unfair. Despite providing clear, time-stamped video evidence, a key return form signed by staff, email proof I reported and fixed smoke alarm issues, and proof I requested a checkout inspection five times, Reposit’s adjudication process ignored almost all my evidence. Their rules only accept landlord-produced “checkout reports” and treat tenant videos and photos as “unverified”, which means the system is stacked in favour of landlords. Even when the landlord ignored all of my checkout inspection requests, the adjudicator still relied solely on the landlord’s documents. The process did not feel impartial or balanced. As a tenant, I felt dismissed, powerless, and unfairly penalised despite acting in good faith throughout my tenancy. Also, a major RED FLAG appeared even before the decision was made: Reposit emailed me telling me to “prepare to pay” the landlord’s charges and outlining in detail the maximum amount I could owe. The tone of that message felt heavily landlord-favouring, especially since it didn’t mention anything about what would happen if my evidence was stronger or if I was not liable. At the time, this made me worry the process was not as neutral as advertised, and unfortunately the adjudication outcome confirmed those concerns (see the pictures attached of that email). I strongly advise tenants to be CAUTIOUS: Reposit is a private company, NOT a government deposit scheme, and their adjudication rules heavily favour landlords. If you are required to use Reposit, document EVERYTHING and be aware that your own evidence may not be even considered. REMEMBER, Reposit is not a government scheme. It is a for-profit private business, backed by investors. Its financial model depends on: charging tenants a fee instead of a deposit, charging landlords a subscription, protecting landlords against loss. Landlords choose Reposit, they bring business paying for Reposit subscriptions, tenants only pay once, so Reposit doesn’t need to keep them happy. This means there is a commercial incentive to keep landlords satisfied so they keep choosing Reposit for future properties. This creates a structural bias, even if nobody explicitly says “favour the landlord”. The entire system is built in a way that structurally benefits landlords, the rules make it easier for them to win disputes and tenants’ evidence is often treated more strictly, and “technicalities” favour their clients. Reposit is not motivated to highlight tenant-friendly outcomes. So, saying this they have their own commercial interests, and now I understand why many landlords and agents encourage tenants to opt for the Reposit option, as they can make charges up because they know they have won the battle if you fall in the trap of choosing this company over a traditional deposit scheme. Oh and the £60 they charge for a "dispute" is a complete SCAM and smoking mirror, making you believe they're impartial, because they already know they have to keep their client (landlord) happy and all your evidence is going to be automatically dismissed, so say goodbye to your "refundable" £60 too. They are not neutral in the same way government-backed schemes are.

Hi Laura, Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed account of your experience. We are genuinely sorry to hear that you feel let down by the process and that it caused you frustration after your tenancy ended. We never want any customer—tenant or landlord—to feel dismissed or unheard. **We would like to clarify how our adjudication process works** Reposit’s adjudications are carried out by independent, professionally accredited adjudicators. They apply the same evidence standards that are used across the wider deposits industry, including government-approved deposit schemes. Landlord-provided check-in and check-out reports are generally considered primary evidence only because they are created by an independent third party at the start and end of the tenancy. However, tenant-submitted photos, videos, and correspondence can and do form part of the evidence considered when relevant and verifiable. We are sorry if you felt your evidence was not given appropriate weight. We would never intentionally disregard information provided by a tenant, and we take concerns about perceived imbalance very seriously. **Regarding the email you received before the adjudication decision** We appreciate how the wording could have caused concern. That message is part of an automated pre-decision process designed to outline all the possible outcomes, including potential charges if the adjudicator finds in favour of the landlord. It is not intended to imply the result has been predetermined. Based on your feedback, we will review this communication to ensure it is clearer, more neutral, and less distressing for tenants. **We want to investigate your case fully** While we cannot discuss case details publicly, we would really appreciate the chance to review your file to understand exactly what happened and whether any processes need improvement. If you are willing, please contact us at hello@reposit.co.uk with your details so our senior resolutions team can personally re-examine the matter. **Your feedback matters** We take every complaint seriously, and we continuously review our adjudication guidelines, communications, and service quality to make sure tenants and landlords are treated fairly. Input like yours helps us improve. Thank you again for sharing your experience, and we hope you’ll allow us the opportunity to look into this further for you.

PATHETIC RESPONSE TO MY COMPLAINT AND EXCUSE TO COVER THEIR APPALLING CORRUPT BUSINESS They have responded to my earlier review with a pathetic excuse. The photos I showed of the flat show that the place was uninhabitable from day one! I could not live in this flat so the landlord had a full months rent and a weeks deposit. Yes the landlord had requested a cleaning fee from me of £60 which I have refused obviously!! But Reposit equally demanded £60 to dispute my case which I have said from the outset is unfair and I am not willing to pay anymore for this disgusting property. They are now threatening CCJ’s if I don’t pay the £60. DISGRACEFUL
