My son finished his first year at Uni a couple of months back, I asked him where the deposit is and it seems that Liberty Living, the company running the halls of residence, have taken the entire £300 for cleaning curtains, bleaching bathroom, and re-painting the walls in his room.
We bleached the bathroom before we left, we also polished the entire place, and he never had any posters on the wall as I recommended not because I had a feeling they were also in it for the deposits.
My son told me that nearly all the students were taken for there entire deposits, and most of the work should have come under normal wear and tear.
Be careful when your kids go to Uni!
When I have rented 2/3 bed flats before, they always try it on, but never more than 100 quid out of the deposit for whatever needed doing.
