“The Tribunal therefore makes a summary determination that the service charges demanded of £3,665.45 were reasonably incurred.”
“As no challenge has been made to the Administration charges of £430.00 or the contractual costs payable under the lease totalling £1,680.00 the Tribunal also finds that they are payable.”
“contractual costs payable under the lease totalling £1,680.00 the Tribunal also finds that they are payable.”
“The Respondent has failed to provide any evidence that supports his defence and has not otherwise challenged the payability or reasonableness of the charges demanded. He has not participated in the proceedings since this matter was referred to the Tribunal.”
