Rent while salon closed?

[Chinju]

Hi
I wanted to check if anyone who rents premises has asked for rent discount while the salons are closed? I have been paying full rent. I thought I will check here before I speak to my landlord.

Many thanks

You can ask but the legal requirements are that rent is paid, however your landlord has to accept a longer period of time for any arrears to be paid and that you need to arrange with them, it never hurts to put forward your position and see if they offer help.

Thank you for your reply. I will speak to my landlord tomorrow.
