I have reviewed the offer made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.I cannot make this any more clear: Neville C Johnson accepted money from me while my room was being illegally subletI provided him with the name, phone number, and email address of the illegal tenant, as well as a copy of my correspondence with her in which she clearly and unabashedly admits to living in the residenceNeville C Johnson has made no attempt to collect from her, which is characteristic of his tendency to do the bare minimumIt is easier for him to unlawfully hold on to $dollars from me so that he doesn’t have to extend himself to collect funds from whom the money is actually owedNeville C Johnson’s response when I informed him of the illegal tenant was an unmitigated failureHe did not show up promptly to inspect the residence as he stated, instead he showed up weeks later to investigateIt does not matter that *** *** claimed that a friend had left some furniture there because *** *** undisputedly admitted to living in the residence and Neville Johnson knows thatI provided him with a photo of the check that *** *** wrote to *** *** for rent and utilities in MayI provided him with photos of the room and bathroom in use, with both a full closet and a large pile of laundryBottom line: *** *** illegally sublet the room, Neville C Johnson undeniably knew about it, he did nothing to reconcile the situation, and he has never made any efforts to seek the proper restitution from either *** *** or *** ***I will be providing extensive documentation directly to the Revdex.com including all photos and email correspondence including that shared between he and my motherThis is inexcusable behavior from an adult, let alone an established businessWhen can I expect a refund for the month of May?
*** is the screen shot of my email from *** *** in which she admits to living in the residence
Regards,*** ***

followed up for a lot of number of times the security deposit that was not returned/refunded for the lease completed last June 13, 2013 by my daughter and her roommate but still the answer we received from the secretary was "I don't know" and " I'll forward the concern To [redacted] or "we'll check on it". This company should be responsible enough to return the security deposit in a timely manner.
