Ficus dark spots/fading colour was created by Suraj

Hey guys,

First plant I've gotten for just about a month now, still learning the basics. It was only labelled Ficus 名媛直播. I think I was probably over-watering following the instruction of the seller who gave a 'once every other day' advice. I stopped about 1-2 weeks ago and only water when the soil feels dry, (maybe I'm under watering now?)

My issues are some consistent dark spots across 2-5 leaves, with some showing through the back. Also colour variation where leaves seem to look patchy/fading, one became yellow before dropping at a slight touch. Any ideas what cause this or what I'm doing wrong? I'm in Scotland where its cold in general, the plant isn't directly by the window as it is single glazing & has a slight draught.

Thanks for any help,

Seems OK to me.
Leaves in Ficus go yellow and fall all the time, not to worry, but...
It needs sun though, and below 15C it suffers a lot, they are tropicals after all.
