Bill asks:
(updated on Tuesday, June 05th 2012)
Our Experts Answer:
The Department of Building and Housing (DBH) will refund a bond upon receipt of a bond refund form signed by both parties or upon receipt of a Mediated or Tenancy Tribunal order. Where signatures on the bond refund form do not match what is on file, the DBH will write to the other party to confirm the payment. Where signatures do match but have been signed fraudulently, parties are encouraged to contact the Police (as you have done).
Whether the DBH reimburses you for your loss is likely to depend on a number of factors including the outcome of any criminal investigation. Contact the DBH on 0800 836 262.
