What if I don't have my landlord's details?
You have a legal right to be given the name and address by the landlord's agent or the person you pay rent to. If you put this request in writing to your landlord's representative, they have an obligation to provide you with this information within 21 days, or they risk prosecution.
Alternatively, you can find out the name and address of your landlord for a small fee, through the Land Registry.
