Describes Tenant Watch, an internet site that enables landlords to share information about problem tenants. Landlord and agent members who subscribe to the service provide their own details along with contact details of their tenants, and can use this information pool to find out if a tenant has outstanding liabilities or is going into receivership. Peter Mooney, the website's creator, argues that the service does comply with the Data Protection Act 1998 and tenants will be informed that their details are held online.
