Struck outPre-Act rulesDecided 2 July 2026Case BIR/17UF/MNR/2026/0092

No rent was set

The application was struck out, so the tribunal did not set a rent. This most often happens when the landlord's notice was invalid or the tribunal had no jurisdiction.

In short

The landlord, Platform Housing Group, proposed increasing the rent for a property in DE4 from £138.88 a week to £145.54 a week. The tribunal struck out the application because it was not satisfied that the rent increase notice was valid, as the landlord said it was served in error after an earlier overcharge had been refunded and the tenant did not address that point. No market rent was determined.

Neither side gave the tribunal comparable lettings.
