The tribunal reduced the buildings insurance charged for 2017, 2018 and 2019 by 10% because part of the cover, loss of rental income protection and employer's liability, was unreasonable, while most other challenged charges were found payable and the sale fee of £350 plus VAT was found reasonable, with no s.20C order and no costs order.
