We have just noticed a critical flaw in this software. We have an inventory company that used this software carry out inventories for us less than a year ago. As we stopped using the company they deleted all our inventories from there system. However this means all the inventories that we have had done even though they are saved in PDF cannot be opened and are useless. The inventory company does not want to make them live as they say they have to pay to host it. So be aware that your inventories can become useless. The inventory company is now making us pay for each inventory to become live again and there is nothing Inventory base can do to help you in this situation.

Scam company - do not use! - the fact they don’t even have a phone number shows they don’t want to hear the truths from their customers ( as we have A LOT to say). - They took a non refundable deposit back from my house before we moved in and are now trying to charge us £1600 for general wear and tear and gardening? after we cleaned the garden and professionally cleaned the house. - after reading our disagreements to the accusations, there was no acknowledgment of our arguments - just a straight up no. No context to why? - the fact we have to pay a £60 to dispute further is disgusting as students. - we have no way to speak to this company and it is unfair and disgraceful.

Hi Isla, We’re sorry to hear about your frustrations and we want to address your concerns clearly. First, to clarify — your agreement was through Reposit, which is a deposit replacement service. The use of Reposit and paying our upfront non-refundable fee replaces the traditional five-week tenancy deposit. tenants choose to use Reposit as a more affordable alternative but it does not negate your responsibility for end of tenancy charges. At the end of a tenancy, landlords are entitled to raise claims for rent arrears, cleaning, gardening, or damage beyond fair wear and tear, in line with your tenancy agreement. These are called Charges under the Reposit T&Cs. You are always notified of any Charges via your Reposit account, and you have 7 days to respond with your own evidence or a counter-proposal. If you disagree with your landlord’s claim and it cannot be resolved directly, the process allows you to escalate to an independent third-party adjudicator by paying a £60 adjudication fee. This fee is fully refunded if your dispute is upheld in whole or in part. The fee exists only to ensure that adjudication requests are genuine and impartial. We appreciate that you would have preferred to speak with someone by phone, but as stated in the T&Cs, all formal communication must go through your Reposit account or via email (hello@reposit.co.uk). This ensures a clear record of all evidence and correspondence for both tenants and landlords. We understand moving out can be stressful, and we regret that the process has left you feeling unheard. Please log into your Reposit account or email us directly so we can review your specific case and make sure it follows the process set out in the Terms & Conditions. Thank you for raising your concerns — we take all feedback seriously and will continue to improve how we explain and support tenants through the Reposit process. Kind regards Reposit Customer Support Team

Me and and my house mates feel scammed by this website and our landlord, having extra payments here and there but being forced to use it to live in our previous house

Hi Harriet, We’re sorry to hear about your experience and understand your frustration. To clarify, Reposit is an alternative to a traditional cash deposit, designed to give tenants more flexibility at the start of a tenancy. It is never a condition of renting a property and tenants should always have the option to choose a standard cash deposit if they prefer. If you feel you were pressured into using Reposit, we’d encourage you to raise this with your landlord or letting agent, as that decision should always remain with you. Please also reach out to our support team directly at hello@reposit.co.uk so we can look into your case in more detail and make sure your concerns are addressed. Thank you for sharing your feedback. Kind regards Reposit Customer Support Team

Shameless scalpers. They charge £60 to dispute fees, so they can basically take £60 from you and you can't argue. The whole business model preys on people who can't afford the £500 deposit.

Hi there, Thank you for your feedback, and we're sorry to hear that you were unhappy with your experience using Reposit. We would like to clarify that the £60 dispute fee, which is outlined in Reposit's terms and conditions agreed to at the time of purchase, supports a fair and independent resolution process for end-of-tenancy charges. This fee helps ensure that disputes raised are genuine, and the fee is fully refundable if the adjudicator reduces the letting agent or landlord’s claim by any amount. Reposit is designed to lower the upfront cost of renting by removing the need for a traditional five-week deposit. However, this does not remove a tenant’s responsibility to plan for any potential end-of-tenancy charges, which may require disputing if you're unable to come to agreement with your letting agent or landlord. We always encourage tenants to review the terms carefully before committing so they are aware of how the process works, including the dispute mechanism, and can plan accordingly. We’re happy to assist if you have further questions about the dispute process or your options. Please contact us directly on hello@reposit.co.uk. Kind regards, Reposit Customer Support Team

I would not recommend using this service. I’ve used Reposit as a student for two separate tenancies, and both experiences were disappointing. Had I known the outcome of the first, I wouldn’t have used it again. Initially, we paid £150 to use the service, only to be met with several unexpected additional charges later on. When we disputed some of these charges, the responses from Reposit felt generic—often seeming auto-generated. We were required to pay a £60 fee if we wanted to challenge their decision a second time. In my view, this system unfairly profits from students who may already be financially stretched and unable to afford a traditional deposit or the extra fees.

Hi Lola, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are genuinely sorry to hear that both of your tenancies with Reposit did not meet your expectations. Reposit was created to help reduce the upfront costs of renting by removing the need for a traditional five-week deposit. However, we understand that end-of-tenancy charges can still be stressful, particularly for students. These charges are submitted by the letting agent or landlord, and while Reposit facilitates the process, we do not set or profit from these charges. If a tenant disagrees with the charges, they have the option to raise a formal dispute. A £60 fee is only required if the case is escalated to a third-party adjudicator, and this fee is fully refunded if any part of the claim is reduced. The adjudication process is designed to be fair and evidence-based for both sides. We are sorry to hear that our communications felt impersonal. We aim to provide clear and consistent support, but we also recognise the importance of making each interaction feel helpful and human. Your feedback is appreciated and helps us improve. We always encourage tenants to review the Reposit terms carefully before committing, so they understand how the process works and can prepare for any potential end-of-tenancy costs or disputes. If you would like us to look into your case in more detail, please feel free to contact our support team on hello@reposit.co.uk. Kind regards, Reposit Customer Support Team

I rarely write reviews, but my recent experience with Reposit has left me utterly appalled and convinced that their service is an absolute scam. I feel compelled to share my story to warn others against trusting or using this company. I had a significant and in my view highly valid dispute with my landlord regarding an unfair payment claim after vacating a property. I opted to dispute this claim through Reposit, hoping for an impartial resolution. I paid a £60 fee, under the assurance that my case would be forwarded to an independent third-party adjudicator who would review the evidence and deliver an unbiased decision. This promise, I now realise was an absolute lie. I strongly doubt they even bothered to carefully examine my case before making their decision. They sided entirely with the landlord, forcing me to pay both the £60 dispute fee plus the unfairly claimed amount. To add insult to injury, there is no further avenue to dispute this decision, which feels incredibly unjust. Please, avoid Reposit at all costs. My experience demonstrates their bias in favour of landlords, showing a complete disregard for tenants' rights. They appear to be solely interested in collecting fees. Learn from my costly experience, DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY!!! I CANNOT REITERATE THIS WARNING ENOUGH!!!

Hi Ruta, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re sorry to hear that you were disappointed by your experience with Reposit. We understand how frustrating it can be when a dispute outcome doesn’t go the way you had hoped. However, we want to assure you that Reposit does not make dispute decisions ourselves. All disputes are referred to an independent, third-party adjudication service. The adjudicator evaluates all submitted evidence and comes to a decision on the bases of this evidence, in line with the relevant regulations. The £60 dispute fee is refundable, unless the adjudicator wholly agrees with the charges raised by the letting agent/landlord. Should there be any discrepancy whatsoever, even just a small amount, the dispute fee will either be refunded to the tenant or deducted from the charges. The dispute fee serves to dissuade any frivolous disputes where the charges raised by your letting agent/landlord are reasonable and justified.We know this doesn’t change your experience, but we hope it offers some clarity about how the process works and why it’s designed to be impartial. If you would like us to review the details of your case, we’d be more than happy to look into it further. Please contact us directly on hello@reposit.co.uk. Thank you again for your feedback. Kind regards, Reposit Customer Support Team

Avoid this company at all costs. Reposit is an absolute disgrace of a service. They charge a smaller, non refundable amount to target the tenants that have less money available upfront but it’s a predatory system that traps renters into paying non refundable fees, unfair claims, and ridiculous charges just to dispute them. I paid £125 upfront for a Reposit. That’s already non refundable even if there’s no issue. Then I was hit with a claim, which was resolved with our landlord privately. Both myself and my landlord have emailed reposit countless times about closing the claim as it has been resolved, and have only got automated replies, and despite our efforts I received a message on the deadline day (today) saying I owe the full amount. Reposit also sent me a misleading email 3 days ago saying I had until midnight that night to dispute the claim, which created huge stress and panic, when I followed this up I was told they made an error. To even dispute a claim, they charge tenants £60. Meaning if you can’t afford to challenge them, you’re basically forced to accept the charges. You never get to speak to a real human and their support feels entirely AI generated, robotic, and unhelpful. You’re passed from one scripted message to the next. No phone number, no proper customer service. This company is built to benefit landlords and exploit tenants, especially those in financially vulnerable situations who can’t afford a traditional deposit or to dispute a claim. I will be filing a formal complaint with the Property Redress Scheme, and I encourage anyone else who’s been treated unfairly to do the same. Reposit is not a tenant-friendly service. it’s an absolute scam dressed up as convenience. Tenants deserve better.

Hi Rayna, We are truly sorry to hear that you’ve had a disappointing experience with Reposit. We want to clarify that Reposit has no financial or operational interest in keeping a claim open once a landlord indicates it should be closed. Any funds collected as part of a claim are passed directly to the landlord. If we are unable to recover those funds, our insurer covers the amount, at a cost to Reposit. In short, it is in our best interest for claims to be closed and for there to be no charges at all, as this avoids triggering insurer costs and supports positive outcomes for all parties. Our intention in reaching out to your landlord was simply to confirm whether he wished to reduce the charges or close the claim entirely. As I explained, we would never hold tenants liable for charges that a landlord has confirmed were resolved. However, because we cannot re-open a claim once it has been closed, it’s crucial for us to obtain clear written confirmation before taking that final step. We aim to proceed cautiously to protect both tenants and landlords from administrative errors that can’t be reversed. Regarding the timeline error, we do apologise again. This was a genuine human oversight, and we appreciated your understanding at the time. We are a small team with a high volume of emails, and unfortunately, we missed your landlord’s message on Friday. After our conversation, we even followed up with a phone call to your landlord to try and get clarity on your behalf as quickly as possible. We also want to reiterate that Reposit does not profit in any way from End of Tenancy charges. Our income comes solely from the initial Reposit fee and annual service fees. When landlords and tenants are able to resolve matters directly without the need for a claim, it’s genuinely the best outcome from our perspective. We can confirm that the claim has now been formally closed. We’re always here to listen, take feedback on board, and improve our service wherever we can. Regarding the £60 dispute fee, this is refundable, unless the adjudicator fully agrees with the charges raised by the letting agent/landlord. Should there be any discrepancy whatsoever, even just a small amount, the dispute fee will either be refunded to the tenant or deducted from the charges. This fee serves to dissuade any frivolous disputes where the charges raised by your letting agent/landlord are reasonable and justified. Thank you for your time, and again, we’re sorry this situation caused you frustration. Kind regards, Reposit Customer Support Team

Absolutely disgusting how they treat tenants, I had to move out of my property due to financial difficulties and have been met with nothing but rude, nasty and just outright awful attitudes from staff members. I was unfairly charged. Didn’t agree to any of the charges and was told I had no choice but to make the payment. I did not authorise Reposit to go into my bank account and take money from me, however they tried to take £1134 and when they couldn’t collect this payment they proceeded to take SEVEN lots of £100 from my account without my authorisation.

Hi Amy, We appreciate your comments as Reposit is always striving to improve on our processes. We note that your initial contact with us was on the 9th July and we provided full information on how to propose a reduced figure in relation to the charges, there was no further request for help received from this confirmation. We would have been happy to help further or discuss options to pay if you had got back in touch. Attempts to recover the charges were therefore attempted in line with Reposit's terms & conditions. We are aware that you emailed us again at the same time of this review and following a discussion about the best course of action for you, Reposit was able to support you and your payment needs. It is always important to reach out, Reposit is always willing to help or provide options where possible. Kind regards Reposit Customer Support Team.
