twice now i've put a deposit down on a flat to let, and been told it's been taken off the market.

Then a little later on, got a phone call saying that there's been a mistake and a higher offer was received just before my deposit was taken. 'we're very sorry, this is very rare, i didn't realise my colleague had made a viewing this morning'.

i'm guess there's nothing i can do? i will get my deposit back, just sick of being messed around.

thanks

nothing you can do until the contracts are signed.

You should get your deposit back.

And if it's the same agent, tell then to stop ****ing you about! Must be highly irritating!
