Checking Companies House…

You may have a Rent Repayment Order claim.

Under the Renters’ Rights Act 2025, qualifying offences let you claim back up to 24 months’ rent — without a solicitor, without a criminal conviction, and without waiting years.

A consolidated starting point. Each link opens the official register’s public search, pre-filled where possible. We don’t store your search and we don’t need an account.

An automated cross-register check. Council registers vary widely and most don’t expose APIs; Companies House and tribunal decisions need human eyes to interpret. The deep checks happen on each official page — we just put them in one place.

Not legal advice. For complex situations, get a second opinion from a qualified housing solicitor.

Most tenants don’t know all four registers exist.

The Renters’ Rights Act 2025 doubled the maximum Rent Repayment Order award from 12 to 24 months’ rent — a typical award now reaches five figures. But filing depends on proving a qualifying offence, which means knowing where to look for the evidence.

Council licensing registers prove unlicensed letting. Companies House proves whether the landlord is a real entity. Tribunal decisions show prior offences. Banning orders mean letting is unlawful regardless of any other factor. Each lives on a different website. Most tenants check none.

We don’t add data on top — we add organisation. The MVP of this tool is one form, four deep-linked starting points, and a clear “here’s what to do if any flag” funnel. The deeper automated cross-register product is on our roadmap.
