CHI/43UK/LSC/2023/0162 · service charges · Tandridge · decided 3 Apr 2024

The Tribunal found that both service charge demands of £485 each were invalid, so the charges were not payable, because the demands did not properly explain they were estimated on-account demands and the Applicant's own demand gave an invalid address.
