i absolutely can't believe any reputable letting agent would tell her to withold the rent! Why would they do that? What did she think would happen if she didnt pay the rent?
Did she let the landlord know that the repairs needed doing? Did she ACTUALLY use the witheld rent money to effect repairs? were the repairs essential (ie big gaping holes in the walls, or just things she would have liked to have been done?

Yes, bad move not paying the rent - it puts her in the wrong. Not surprising she gets an eviction notice.
I'd be really surprised that a letting agent advised her to stop paying rent as no rent means no monthly commission for them.
And, yes, she will owe rent up until the day she leaves, whether that's by being evicted or leaving of her own accord. If she fails to pay all the rent due then the landlord will probably take her to Court.

di he/she do any of the repairs?
the letting agent told you to withold the rent? thats very kind of them
I would expect that if you are being evicted then youll be required to pay everything owing, up to the end of the lease and including all costs.

The date of service of the eviction notice is irrelevant. She is liable to pay rent up to the date she moves out (even if it is after the eviction date specified in the notice) OR - if she moves out before the date specified - the date the notice specified as the eviction date.
Unless there is a Court order, the eviction notice is probably illegal and she could ignore it and stay there. So the question of the landlord having to give her time to move out shouldn't really arise. However, as she has decided to go I would have thought agreeing a date should not be too difficult. If the notice has been served under a Court order then the date will be definite and cannot be altered unless the landlord agrees.
