Filing Fee Rent arrears

Order

An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the Landlord name and identifying details.
Lillian-rose Jessie Ritchie must pay [The landlord/s] $1,408.00 immediately, calculated as shown in table below:
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $1,820.00 ([Bond number suppressed]) to [The landlord/s] immediately.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing by telephone.
The landlord has applied for rent arrears, refund of the bond, filing fee and termination. The tenant confirmed that they have already vacated.
The tenant said that she moved out of the premises on 18 August 2025 because she believed that the landlord was going to terminate the tenancy. She thought she had 2 weeks to move out. On this basis the tenant believes that she owes $50.00 in rent owing to 18 August 2025.
The landlord confirmed that he sent a message saying that he was going to end the tenancy due to rent arrears but neither party gave notice to end it. He did not know that the tenant had vacated and had recently sent an email giving notice for an inspection.
The tenant still has the keys to the premises and said that she did not tell the landlord she had left because she could not access his telephone number due to problems with her phone.
The tenant did not agree she was liable for the amount claimed saying that the landlord had been paid $2730.00 at the start of the tenancy. The landlord agreed saying this was $1820.00 for bond and $910.00 was for 2 weeks rent in advance. This transaction is recorded in the updated rent summary on 22 July 2024 and formed part of the calculations establishing rent arrears.
This is a periodic tenancy, and a tenant must give notice to end it which they failed to do. See section 51 Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
The landlord has does not have possession of the premises and I find that the landlord has provided rent records which prove the amount owing and award rent up to the date of the hearing.
If either party has further claims to be determined, they must file an application with the Tenancy Tribunal
Because [The applicant/s] has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee and grant name suppression as requested.
