If you believe there is any financial loss or damage caused by your tenants under their tenancy agreement, and they have failed to reach a settlement directly with their landlord (it is a requirement of the guarantee that direct settlement has been attempted), they can notify us of this and request to make a claim. If at the end of the tenancy we become aware that payment has not been made to you by the tenant in settlement of any financial loss or damage, we will assume that a claim has been made.
