Renter pays deposit, then decides not to move in, then refuses to take the deposit back.
Ok so several months ago, I took in a deposit from a couple and they gave me a bogus story to as why they couldn't move in, I told them that it was customary for the deposit to be forfeited if you refuse to move in. Well now after them harassing me for several months, I decided to give them their money back. I told them I would pay them on a such date and they refused and said they are taking me to court now. These couple are the worst people I have ever dealt with, on one hand they are saying they want to work with me, then on the other hand, they don't want to work with me. I did tell them that if they took me to court I will fight them every step of the way now, because I feel like they are being totally dishonest with me from the very get go. I AM SO GLAD I DID NOT RENT TO THESE COUPLE. :)
