That why I do homestay ..4 years oredi.

Ya, that's why.

But Homestay will its own issue too.

One or 2 nights, not much can be done.

Afterall Airbnb have insurance cover for host.

Reconnection cant be done on the same address/unit even wiv different tnb acc name . Change to tenant name might prevent u hv bad report in ctos ccris.

if every month just below then RM 20 - 40.... i think 7 month aso wont cut....
last time my house just that amount... 7 month still not yet cut...

I won't change name if I were u. This gives me a leverage. If they don't pay, I have the authority to ask tnb to cut. As simple as that.

Also if u don't want so much headache in the future, get insurance like speedhome

What the fk. Bit bullshit then. At least safe from CTOS/CCRIS.

Tell and remind him to pay or risk eviction, deposit are never meant to be deducted, as it's your final trump card as collateral.
Later deducted, he move out you also another headache

1. Forfeit the utilities deposit AND securities deposit (non payment of utilities is a breach of tenancy terms and gives landlord the right to forfeit securities deposit, in most instances)
2. Terminate tenancy agreement with immediate effect
3. Sue tenant in court for double rental (in the event he refuses to shift out) AND recovery of outstanding utilities (assuming your deposit is insufficient to cover the arreas).

This i agree.

Tnb only want money. Doesnt matter who pays or whose account.

Many tenants are like nomad. Is not easy to issue them legal documents.

Are you a landlord? Have you sue your tenant before? What's the outcome?

give them 2 weeks to settle bill if not, get tnb to cut letrik

Not being to pay utility bills ON TIME is already an early sign.. A sign of something worse is coming.

time to ask TNB to cut

sue them very time consuming, just cut the electricity then they will pay immediately.

If whatsapp does not work, then call the tenant.

If call also does not work, then need to have face to face talk.

use deposit. deduct from there.

need to collect 3 payments before renting out.

1 for first month rental fee.
1 for deposit bills
1 for deposit if anything broken.
