I am currently subletting a room from a tenant, who is renting from a landlord. The tenant also lives in the flat.
I gave my 8 weeks notice in writing, but will be vacating the room 3 weeks early.
I am happy to pay rent up to the end of the 8 week period. However, I'm wondering what my liability is in terms of the bills after I have vacated and returned the keys.
I have informed the council of the date that I am vacating the property - so should I be liable for council tax until the end of my subtenancy? I am under the impression that I should not be paying council tax twice (obviously I will be paying once I move into the new property), is this correct?
In terms of utility bills, should I be paying the tenant's bills whilst they are living alone?
Should I be liable for paying for the tenant's internet and TV licence if I am no longer living there?
