You want move out after just 2 months?

If you signed a one year contract then you are liable for rent, council tax and utilities for the full 12 months even if you move out.

You can try to negotiate.

It would not seem unreasonable to pay to contract end, as per the 12 month agreement you have signed.

As Mark10 has said… you can try to negootiate
