From the tribunal's reasons on the amount

The Tenancy agreement was for a twelve-month term commencing 1st July 2017, to 30th June 2018. Rent was a sum of £83 per person, per week, to be paid as a single payment of £1798.33 in advance from the 1st day of each month. Rent was to include utilities, (gas, electricity, water) Council tax TV licence and internet/TV subscription. … He was sent email newslet- ter on the 24th May 2018 to advise him that the Council were visiting unli- censed properties where HMO licences had not been renewed, and warning that anyone who had not renewed their licence would face prosecution or a civil penalty. … He admitted he was sorry and accepted responsibility for li- censing. … A prosecution file had been prepared and was (at the time of the statement) expected to be heard at Leeds Magistrates Court on 6th March 2019. No evidence was pro- vided as to the outcome of the criminal proceedings. … She stated that rent was paid monthly, at £360 for July to September, and £338 for October to June, totaling £4122. She provid- ed bank statements in support. She reduced this amount for the first ten days of the tenancy (during which there was a licence in force) by £120, or £12 per day. Her bank statements show payments of a total of £4372; less deposit of £150, and reference fee of £100 would be £4122. She sought repayment of £4,000, of her original £4,122 paid. …
