Trafalgar threatens to Black list

I’ve been renting an office space with Trafalfar for almost 2 years but with Corona and lockdown things did not go according to plan , the business started sinking infact I battled paying rent the whole of 2020 but I’ve never missed a payment with the hope that things will go back to normal but it did not , so towards month end of Jan I sent an email to Trafalgar explaining my predicament and also informing them I have come to a decision to close down the office as I do not have money to pay rent anymore , they rep**** to me saying I can’t my lease agreement will end in June I asked to them I Know that and that is the reason I am writing to them and explaining nobody had planned for this Pandemic to happen so it doesn’t make sense for them to force me to stay after I have explained that I cannot afford payments anymore . They said to me I must put 1 month notice of which I did and I explained they can use my deposit as rent for that notice period and reimburse me the balance Now the story has changed again they can’t release me if I don’t pay they will black list me and they still want their payments until June .

Please help me solve this problem, The lady I’m dealing with is Mellisa trafalgar offices in Durban Thank you My w

Hi - I have requested the Commercial Management Manager of our Durban office to contact you in this regard, but please keep in mind that we act on instruction of the Landlord.  Trafalgar is only the agent.
