    Vacation rental security deposit
    I recently rented a vacation home for one week. Upon my return I was notified by the landlord that he was keeping my security deposit ($450) and charging me additional money. The items he listed as reasoning for these charges are invalid and absurd. The rental was in Florida. What is the procedure I should follow to dispute these charges?

    You can write them and challenge their charges.

    Report them to the BBB.

    And sue them in small claims court in Florida.
