Empty Promises - Deposit still not received

Hi,<br> We rented an apartment from MP for almost 3 years. We moved out end of July, it is now 7 Sept and we have still not received our deposit back. we called numerous times, the first few times we were told to call back after a few days as they were still waiting on quotes or prices of certain things that needed to be done. I called 2-3 times last week first I got told it was going to be paid the next day, two days later I called back and got told they had banking issues they will be paying that afternoon, I called again on Friday and got told that Debbie is in a meeting she'll get back to me. M husband has also called a few times and each time more and more excuses are being made. I also email them on Friday and received a response this morning saying the accounts dept will revert back shortly...but I'm still waiting. My expenses are pilling and I need my money, but there is just no way of getting them to pay when they say. My friend warned me about this as she had the same problem with them when it was time for her to receive back her deposit.<br> <br> Please help as I really need the money ASAP!
