2letnow increasing Rent twice in within 3 months

the rent just increased in March and we had to pay double to add to our deposit. now there are contracting private gardens, we were informed but we were not told that it will make the rent increase before the annual increase. the rent has increased in march and now is April due to may renewal of my lease i was accidentally been informed of the increased rent due to the new construction of private gardens. in fact i was not informed i asked when I had to sign because I saw that the rent had increased. the company was not transparent to its tenants and when you enquire they seem not to care at all. where is one expected to get such an increase twice within 3 months during such economic challenges? couldn't 2 let wait for 6 months or why didn't they increase it together at once on an annual increase?
