    Have moved out of a shared house two weeks ago. The deposit is a rolling one arranged between outgoing/incoming tenants with no LL involvement. Have waited two weeks for it to be transferred to my account, so giving new tenant one more week to straighten things out.

    If theres no joy by the end of next week, what would I need to do, given the LL has abdicated his responsibility over deposits?

    Your first mistake was to let anyone move in without payment of a deposit first.

    Are you even able to chase that if they don't pay? Officially like e.g. PRTB?

    Nope. Small Claims Court is the only option.

    Go back to the house and confront him immediately is what I’d do.

    It’s how deposits were always handeled in houseshare I lived in and never had an issues with it thankfully.
