Refunding of Deposit

Nick has passed the buck over to the office administrator to deal with me after inquiring my deposit to be paid back after vacating the premises.<br> The lease agreement says the deposit will be paid back 7 days after vacating the apartment but not longer than 14 days after inspection. The apartment had been inspected on the 1st of October 2014<br> After 14 days, nothing had been communicated to me. LeeAnn then emailed me to say that what the contract means is that it's 14 days after everything has been finalised-another delay tactic. I had paid the outstanding electricity amount early in October and counted 14 days<br> On the 6th of November I receive an email saying that payment will be made on the day and to send my banking details. Four days later nothing had been received. It was only done after further investigations and Nick deducting the electricity that I had paid in October<br> This is not the right way to conduct business-I hope that in the future that you won't delay and put your own meanings of contracts as a delay tactic
