"Forced" to surrender tenancy earlier
Comments

Just to ease your stresses. For arguments sake you do have such an agreement (which I don't think you do, by the way)
The only way to enforce it would be to go to court, which takes 6 weeks or so, just to get a date. But before than they have to serve pre-action papers (a letter before action) which typically is 10 working days.
So that's 8 weeks. You'll be gone with-in two. It wont ever get to court.
Indeed we don't have such an agreement.
I think a simple click of the "Thank you" button wouldn't suffice so, thank you very much for the input (and yes, it did put my mind even more at ease reading that).0 -
A quick update for anyone interested.
EA came back to me and they're fine with it, "if you can't move you can't move, we'll let the new tenant know and sort it out with them".0 -
