Tenancy change - removal of clause

Hi there, I would like help with a question on changing tenancy names. I have had agreement from the landlord and current other tenant however the agents claim they have removed the clause allowing this change from our contract. We were not notified of this change and it is only as they can no longer charge more than £50. We are now being asked to pay £660 for this change as it is breaching the contract. The current other tenant also never signed the new contract. Do we have any rights in this situation? Thanks

The agent can't unilaterally change the agreement, and in any event the contract is between the landlord and tenant, so if the landlord is happy with it, their agent has no business interfering.0

Thank you David, that's super helpful. The contract changed when I took over the tenancy but we were not made aware of any changes to the original contract (things such as the break clause still apply so it is the original contract rather than a new one). The agents claim the landlord is breaching and the landlord has been ordered to pay. How do you recommend we move forwards?0
