Sound familiar?

You're not being difficult. You're being ignored.

  • You message them. Nothing. You message again. Still nothing.
  • Suddenly there's 'damage' you've never heard about, with no photos and no receipts.
  • “I'll transfer it next week.” That was two months ago.
  • Your Spanish is fine for a bar, not for arguing about the Ley de Arrendamientos Urbanos.
  • A lawyer quoted you more than the deposit is worth.
  • So you start wondering whether to just let it go.

Don't. In Spain your landlord has one month from the day you return the keys. After that, the law is on your side — you just need it said properly, in the right language, through the right channel.

How it works

Three steps. We do the hard part.

  1. Step 1

    Tell us what happened

    A few minutes, all in English. Plain questions about your deposit, your tenancy and your landlord. No forms in Spanish, no legal vocabulary.

  2. Step 2

    We prepare and send the demand

    We write your demand in correct legal Spanish, have it reviewed by a Spanish abogado, and send it as a burofax through Correos — the format Spanish courts recognise.

  3. Step 3

    You get certified proof

    You receive official proof of what was sent and that it was delivered, plus a clear, plain-English plan for what to do if they still don't pay.

Wait — what's a burofax?

The letter Spain actually takes seriously.

A burofax is a certified way of sending a document in Spain. Correos records both what you sent and that it was delivered, and gives you documents proving it.

That's what makes it different from an email or a WhatsApp. It carries real weight: a Spanish judge will accept it as evidence that you formally demanded your money and set a deadline. It's the standard, expected first move in a deposit dispute — and often the moment a landlord suddenly finds your bank details.

To count, it has to be written in Spanish, say the right things, and go through the right channel. That's exactly the part we handle.

Why us

I built this after my own fight.

My landlord kept €1,400 of mine. He stopped replying, then claimed damage to a kitchen I had cleaned twice before leaving. My Spanish wasn't good enough to argue, and the two lawyers I called wanted more than the deposit.

So I spent weeks working out how it's actually done here. I wrote the demand, sent the burofax, and had the money back in eleven days. Then friends started asking me to do it for them.

This is that process, turned into a service, so you don't have to figure it out alone while you're already stressed.
