How does Kerfuffle rank Deposit Protection suppliers?
Suppliers are ranked by the Evidence Score, out of 100: 35% rating, 30% number of reviews, 25% how recent the reviews are and 10% the wording of the reviews. Only reviews from estate and letting agents count, a supplier needs at least five to be ranked, and paying Kerfuffle does not change the order.
What is the difference between deposit protection and a deposit replacement scheme?
Deposit protection holds or insures the tenant's cash deposit in a government approved scheme. A deposit replacement scheme replaces the cash deposit altogether, with the tenant paying a fee or buying cover instead. Many letting agents offer both, so check how each supplier handles claims, end of tenancy disputes and fees.
