TNB contracts are tag to the property and NEVER to an individual just like Syabas, Assessment and Quit Rent.

Most landlord have the misconception that the tenant is responsible for the bill when the contract is in the tenant's name. If that is the case, landlord can always create FAKE agreement and do illegal activity in his premise. Once bill reached the sky without paying, just open another account.

Same like assessment, the majlis will seize the assets in the property with outstanding bills irrespective if the asset belongs to the tenant or owner. They cannot be going around msia looking for the owner ! The action will prompt the owner to settle the bill.

So, if you want reconnection, someone has to settle the outstanding bill first or appeal to pay instalment.

Get it done so you can start collecting rental. Have the account in your name for minitoring and you instruct for disconnection if there is unpaid bills. You cant do it if is in tenant's name.

But TS followed what tnb suggestion that get the tenant to register and not under his name. And end up the tenant did not pay but tnb still chased him

Same as speeding summon caught on camera, even if the owner let his friend drive unless if have proof.

3 months didnt pay or usage exceed deposit(with tnb) amount how come tnb didnt take notice and cut the electricity? Its their side that didnt do anything to prevent it. As landlord TS if knew beforehand cant even do anything cause meter is by tnb, he cant go and pull the fuse himself. Dont say he should had reported it to tnb cause account name is not under him just the property
