I'm still confused whether I'm a lodger or tenant.

He used to walk into my room to close my window when I forget but hasn't been doing it lately.
What has this to do with anything?So the original verbal agreement
so his word against yours, call it lodge or tenant, who cares, you have no contract so neither of you have much rightsis 300 pounds per month inclusive of all bills, staying for 12 full months, paid monthly
you pay via cheque?. We never agreed on how much notice I need to give before leaving, and we never agreed whether I am a lodger or a tenant.
Half way through this month my landlord ups the rent to 334 pounds per month
assuming you have lived their less then 12 months, he can't do this, but then again neither of you have a contract. He said if you're not willing to pay I'll give you back your deposit and you can leave tomorrow morning
can you not leave at end of this month - weekend?.
I wanted to leave at that point but agreed to his terms to buy myself time to find somewhere else to live
maybe should have been honest.
Two days ago my landlord got suspicious and found out I'm looking for elsewhere to live. My excuse is I can't afford to live here anymore. He asked for a cheque given to him in advance and won't cash it in until 1st Dec. He still owes me 16 pounds
what for?; while not a lot of money I had asked 3 times by now and each time he promises to give it back to me later.
Now I've found somewhere else to live and plan on moving either on 29th or 30th, and paying 20 pound to cancel that cheque
ask your landlord for the cheque back or go into his room and get it or shut bank account :P. Will he be able to bring me to court and get a month's rent off of me for not giving him 30 days notice prior to leaving
long and short of it no? Should I just pay him an extra month's rent to avoid future hassle
no?
