    If the receiver wants to go down the route of "you're not our tenant" and doesn't fancy playing by the tenancy law then I don't see why you should be expected to either. I'd say talk to the receiver first and see what they say, and plan your next move from there.

    I agree with djmni. Make it your business to speak as soon as possible with the receiver. It may be that he would be happy to have someone in occupation, paying rent and providing a caretaker service rather than have the place empty and at risk of squatters etc. There may even be scope for a rent decrease. If the place is part of a receivership package the progress of selling it to maximise a return for the receiver will be very slow in any case.

    Also make sure to ask the receiver what the story with your deposit is, and get the answer in writing.
