any legal type of people on

[Barry Dragon]

Tell them you contract is with them. They pay and if they want to get the new owners to pay them back then they can.

Though not sure that would go down well.

Not a lawyer but been involved n enough legal stuff to know that your contract is with the management company, not the owners of the flats. They have made a cock-up, not your problem. They should pay.
Realistically you should start with polite communication, and if you can get a compromise with them it may be best, but on the face of it, your case is clear cut, so consider as a last resort the small claims court.

i thought that would be the case

As a update, spoke to the new MC and said i would be happy to have a goodwill gesture of £ 250 of both MC's, they have said that sounds fair enough and will speak to the old MC and see what they say

even at £ 500 i am happy, so if that is the way it goes, then so be it, at least i have kept the old MC happy and shown what a all round good guy i am LOL
