Reply to '' Breathing Space '' - Spring Time 2021.

by rag-uk

by DPT57

As jpkeates says, contact them in writing to tell them that you accept their surrender of the tenancy which is now at and end. Don't ask them to sign a surrender document as that could be used against you to show that you didn't believe the tenancy had ended....
