    Have you looked at your tenancy agreement to see if the details are given there?
    Your LL is probably well aware already as to why you cannot pay your rent, but, since he cannot at present apply for a possession order, it makes little difference. Why not just write to the LA and ask them to forward it?

    See my post above for the law.

    If you mean the address give for landlord or for "the service of notices" is the agent, that's entirely legal.

    If however you have no address at all, simply stop paying rent (rent ain;t due..).  Think they'll sort it quite quickly

    Obviously we have the agents address and keep getting emails and phone calls from them because haven’t paid rent since march

    all I want to do is negotiate with the LL and explain things to them how everything seems to have gone wrong for us financially during this crisis 

    im hoping we can negotiate a lower rent and a repayment deal, if not then we will have to move back in with out parents eventually when we do finally get evicted and he gets nothing for all those months

    If the landlord had wanted you to contact them directly, they'd have provided you with alternative contact methods. It's quite likely they're employing an agent in order that the agent deals with this sort of discussion on their behalf - and that even if you manage to contact the LL directly, they'll just tell you to talk to the agent anyway.

    Maybe true, but the law is the agent has to provide it if I demand it

    its just another reason for me to not pay my rent

    Do you or do you note have any address for the landlord please, even if it is c/o agent.  Sigh!

    Yes I know you have agent's address: Great, wonderful
    : The question is, what if any address do you have for landlord - none at all or e.g. c/o agent;  Please?

    If you have an address, write to landlord at that address: Job done...

    The law is the law

    if a tenant demands the letter of the law then that is that

    if you don’t like it then try to change the law

    gold luck with that
