How to challenge DSS discrimination Find out what you can do if an agent refuses to rent to you just because you get benefits. No DSS policies are unlawful discrimination A 'no DSS' policy is when an agent refuses to rent to anyone who gets universal credit or housing benefit. This could include when agents: refuse to let you view an affordable property won't consider you for a tenancy because you get benefits advertise properties as 'no DSS' or 'working professionals only' The courts have ruled that no DSS policies are unlawful because they indirectly discriminate against women and disabled people. But you can complain to an agent or the Property Ombudsman about no DSS policies, regardless of your sex or disability. FYI
