不然房东会被罚付房客双倍押金滴。详见如下：
“Your landlord can return your deposit by delivering it in person, mailing it, leaving it in your mailbox or mail slot, or sending it electronically. According to section 5 in Schedule of the Residential Tenancy Regulation, “a landlord must not charge a fee in relation to any cost incurred by the landlord to repay a deposit”
Your landlord cannot simply decide on their own to keep your deposit. If they want it, they need written permission from you or the Residential Tenancy Branch (RTB). After 15 days, if your landlord has not returned your deposit, obtained your written permission, or applied for dispute resolution, you have the right under section 38 of the Residential Tenancy Act (RTA) to apply for double the amount of your deposit.
