What would be checked before release
The planned sequence is package selection, landlord details, agreement and payment authority, [KYC provider] identity preparation, source-of-funds explanation, then a future instruction to the APA arrangement. The landlord details would be verified before any release.
- The [KYC provider] name, scope, evidence requirements and time estimate require confirmation.
- Account details, amount, payment reference and SWIFT/BIC would be supplied only after future verification.
- The service is optional and does not change a tenancy agreement or legal requirement.
Returns, fees and information status
Remaining rent would follow the final terms and confirmed partner process. It is separate from a service-fee refund. Proposed refund rule, refund cost to be confirmed and subject to final-terms review: [A full refund is available before identity verification begins; once verification has begun, the verification cost of £__ is non-refundable.]
- Premium priority assistance with remaining rent does not bypass disputes, checks or terms and does not guarantee a date.
- Standard £299/year excl. VAT (£358.80 incl. VAT) · Premium £399/year excl. VAT (£478.80 incl. VAT). These are proposed annual service fees, separate from rent.
