8 Jun 2026Landlord ignoring the rent the tribunal set: how to enforce it and reclaim what you overpaid — tenant walkthrough 2026
Winning at the rent tribunal is one thing. Getting the landlord to actually charge the rent the tribunal set is another. Some landlords carry on demanding the figure they originally proposed, or keep deducting the higher amount by standing order, as if nothing happened. The tribunal's decision is binding, so you have clear options: insist on the correct rent, recover anything you have overpaid since the effective date, and if needed pursue it as a debt. This walkthrough explains exactly how, with a demand template and the money-claim route. England only, after a Section 13 determination.
