Don't lose your email login coz you're going to need it to get the bond refund.
Tenancy Services are going digital with bonds being managed online.

Tenancy Services website says: There are 2 ways to apply for a bond refund:

landlords can use their property management software (PMS), or
landlords and tenants can complete the ‘Bond refund’ form and email or post it to Tenancy Services.
Tenants should talk to their landlords about the best way to apply for a bond refund.

But they also say:
From June 2026, Bond Hub will be able to manage bond refunds and changes of tenant online. This means no more paper forms and a faster, more transparent way to manage bonds.

When you become involved with a bond refund, things might look a little different – but the process will be simpler and easier to track.
