Hi, I handed in my notice for a room for a HMO in May, and was planning to stay for the full 2 months notice.
However I had some personal problems and had to move out early, left the key in case I couldn't make it back in time, and let the landlord know.

I still paid rent up to end of June, but a housemate told me that someone new moved in last week. The landlord also released my deposit in full from the DPS on the same day, but does anyone know if I have any legal standing to try and get back the rent I paid for the month, or is it just a case of my landlord being scummy and there's not much I can do? TIA!
