The Renters Rights Bill Online Conference

“The two day conference was one of the best industry events I have attended in a long time. The speakers were experts in their field and all the information was relevant. Deeper insights into some of the more complicated or controversial elements of the Renter's Rights Bill. The mix of speakers was helpful from lawyers, an experienced landlord, LHA enforcement, letting agent professional body, redress scheme and more. I highly recommend that any landlord joins Landlord Law to benefit from the expertise offered including events like this.

NB Terms & conditions apply

Q: Can I cancel and get a refund?

A: Yes, provided you let us know within 30 days after purchase. Let us know the reason for our cancellation. We will refund your money within 14 days and your access to the recordings will be terminated.

Q: If my computer cannot access the recordings, can I get a refund?

A: This is unlikely as we use standard software used all over the world. However provided you let us know within 30 days of purchase we will refund your money and remove your access.

Q: Is there CPD?

A: No, we are not providing CPD with these recordings. Although, your accreditation body may be willing to grant you CPD if you say you have watched the recordings.

Q: I want to use two coupons, but the system won't let me

A: I am afraid you can only use one coupon - so if you have two, you will need to decide which one to use. Landlord Law members can use a coupon and still get their automatic discount, but coupons cannot be used at the same time as Landlord Law points as our system does not allow this. Contact us via the Green Button messenger service if you need further help.

Q: Can I pay by cash or cheque?

A: No, payments must be made online via our system (where you can pay by card or PayPal).

Q: Will I be able to ask questions?

A: No, although if you are a Landlord Law member, you can ask questions on our Members Forum in the usual way.

Q: How long will I get access?

A: You will get access to the recordings for six months from the date of purchase. Time can sometimes be extended on request (at our discretion).

Q: I am a Landlord Law member, is this included in my membership?

A: No, however, all Landlord Law members will get an automatic discount - £25 for Business Level members and £15 for Basic level members, provided you are logged in at the time of purchase. Members will also be able to offset their Landlord Law points.

Q: My property is outside England - is this training suitable for me?

A: No, this training is focused on the Renters Rights Bill, which will only affect landlords and those managing rented property in England, UK.

Q: Do the recordings cover commercial lettings or social housing?

A: No, the Renters Rights Bill, just deals with residential lettings. Although the bill covers some social housing issues, these are not included in the course material.

Q: I am a Landlord Law member paying online and am having difficulty offsetting my points

A: Landlord Law points cannot be used with coupons. You will need to decide whether it is most cost-effective to use your points or the coupon. If you have other issues, please contact us via the green button service for support.

Q: How do I contact you via the Green Button Messenger Service?

A: > Click here for our help page. You will see the green button bottom right on that page. It is not visible on this page as this page is hosted outside the Landlord Law website.
