T1 :
The rental month fee is $1200., and the landlord asked us to pay $1900 as deposit, which include last month payment and an extra deposit($700) for furniture damage cost. The overcharged $700 is illegal.
We shared one of the rented room to my friend for 3 weeks, and the landlord asked us to pay extra $300. This extra $300 is illegal.
I paid $2100 as deposit on 29th. January, and the deposit changed to $1900 on 1st. May. The landlord never paid me any interest for this deposit. I calculate this amount based on 0.087% per month.
