Issue with "housemate"

[fiatpower]

My housemates and I are looking at taking a fellow "housemate" to the small claims court as they have refused to pay rent for the 6 months that remain on our contract now that they have left (taking the keys with them). They do not live here anymore. The problem is we do not have their address as they refuse to give it to us. We do know their current work, can summons be sent there? Alternatively I have heard that we can use the address of the house we live in as this is our last known address for them, would this count?

What could possibly go wrong.

Oh yea, a big bald headed ahole bailiff walking down the path with your new PS4.

None of her stuff is here so they can't take anything. The plan would be to tell her that she has post and when she comes to get it we tell her what it is.

Probably because they've signed a tenancy which holds them jointly and severally liable for the entire rent. The landlord will be renting the entire property. How the house/rent is shared is the problem of the tenants.

Exactly this. We also cannot get someone else is as it is written into our contract that we cannot, besides the fact is that she technically hasn't moved out as she still has the key and is still on the contract.
