Experts here, may I know if it's normal that Management Body never do any billing or invoicing but expecting owner to pay? Can we challenge the legality of charging late payment fee?

Is a recuring amount and I dont see the need to issue invoice unless there is a change in amount.

Banks also dont do billing for monthly instalment if there is no change in the amount.

If borrower can pay monthly instalment on/before due date to avoid late payment charges, I dont see why owner can forget about monthly maintainance charges.

If owners dont pay on time, how can the Management body function ?

Anyway it's the non recurring amount. It's the additional charges. And they never have any black and white documentation in place. Btw I always pay my monthly maintenance chatges as a responsible owner.

The Management Body standard has been deteriorating with the changes of committee down the years, although the maintenance charges is raised. Lol.

What is the additional charges ?

No minutes of the past AGM for the charges ?

CCTV. No bill, no invoice, no plan of action, and no indicated payment date. There is no payment schedule in place.

You rely on minutes to pay bill?

Your 1st Q is not specific and this thread is about maintainance fee.

My answer is based on the thread.

If don't pay maintenance fees, then can attend AGM but cannot vote.

The Act says if any charges due & payable is not paid by the 7th day before the
AGM, then cannot vote.

How to count the 7th day? Calendar days or Working days? Anyone can confirm?

If non mentioned in a contract, is deemed continuous day.
