So I'm confused, why didn't you just file and inform them that you had filed and they now owed you double? From my reading you were 2 months in. They have no disincentive from your situation to improve.
I mean if you were concerned about the hassle it seems you could have equally said, 45 days have passed, at this point you are legally obliged to give me 2x the deposit, citing the law as you did. Pay me 1.5x the deposit now or 2x when I file at the local court.
At least then in the future they may respond to the first message to future tenants.
