They say it was not their responsibility to inform me and that they are not obligated to inform tenants of this exception.

Our landlord checked us out on Aug 1 stating everything was perfect and we would receive all of our deposit back in 14 business days. Our total deposit was $1850- we received $300. They stated we did not give them notice.
