    Have you tried going direct?

    I have the landlord's name and address in China, but the address for serving notices is a C/O address directed to the agent's offices.

    Well as I advised, go direct to the LL if the agent is not helping you.

    The agent isn't really the problem (other than lying about the tenancy ending last year); it's the landlord who isn't responding to the agent. My only means of contacting the landlord is via postal airmail, and if the landlord won't even respond to their own agent (apparently emails/phone calls/voicemails), then realistically, why would they bother responding to a letter sent from overseas? (Assuming they could even understand it.)
