Refusal To Pay Back Deposito

During March 2021, I contacted Chris from The Handy Boys (Maintenanc) in Cape Town, for a quotation for bathroom renovations at my place. The arrangement between us was that I will pay a deposito upfront and then I will accept and sign his quote and forward it to him. Then he will start working at my place. I did pay the deposito, but then I read through his online reviews and they were very bad. I realised that I cannot risk making use of his services. I therefore did not accept or sign his quotation and I notified him within 3 business days, that I will not use his services and the reason why and that he must please pay back my deposito. However he refused to pay back my deposito, which means that I had lost that money and he has never started working by me.

Reviewer Update
I wondered what happened to the deposito money?
During March 2021, Chris from The Handy Boys (Maintenance), in Cape Town, indicated on his quote for bathroom renovations at my place, that he is registered with the CIDB (construction industry development board). However his registration with the CIDB already expired on 09/09/2019.
