Inform your tenant saying the unpaid electrical bills will deduct from the deposit.

Deposit is for owner backup right?

If he do the same for rental then you can kick him out already.

2±1 deposit?

Ask them to pay balance if not kick out.

After they pay, drag them go TNB change their name as tenant. Future liability will be under them even they run away.

Sometimes when you met some bad tenant, don't bother to teach.

They purposely want to drag the payment.

But if the contract both of you signed have the TnC written clearly, then he and you know what is the consequences of not paying the bills/rental.

Then they give us option to change to tenant for what? Reconnection able to do but need to pay. I believed changing to tenant help truly helps instead the bill stick to your name. Currently TNB made it easier to do changing name to tenant.

Haha. You haven't met worst

Ya, that's why.

But Homestay will its own issue too.

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

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).

tumpang asking

apartment/condo
management or service fee, sinking fund all pay by landlord or tenant
let say around rm250

has anyone of you ask management to bar assess card when tenant did not pay up ?

I am thinking of asking management to do so. owe me 3 months already. This renting business really headache. Next time really need to screen tenant before agreeing to rent.

BTW, how do we do a CTOS check?

Alright, it's just... as a human being, sometimes I wish i don't have to resort to this but... real world sometimes don't work that way..

The previous tenant is good, paid up on time, and if there was delay he will tell me as courtesy.

This current one, if you don't remind her, she diam diam will delay... giving all sorts of excuse.

but... at least she pays... for the last 4 years... but the experience was unpleasant, having need to chase the rent ...

Lets just say that I'm in the business of suing and being sued.

In general, Landlords usually have a strong case against a tenant, PROVIDED that the terms of the tenancy agreement are clear, precise and free from ambiguity.

the Landlord only needs to prove that there is a breach of the terms under the tenancy agreement to be entitled to any remedy/compensation/damages under the Tenancy Agreement.

Landlord usually wins in such disputes, unless the landlord himself has not adhered to/complied with the provisions under the tenancy agreements.

Like i mentioned.

Would the cost of legal proceedings for the recovery exceed the value of the total unpaid bills?

If yes, then it is not worth it, all things considered.

There are some folks would rather be bankrupt than pay their debt.

Another issue is that, would the minimum debt threshold for bankruptcy be met?

Nola, the judge can let your tenant to choose to pay a lump sum or by installment one. If after that he no pay you, then you apply send him to prison for up to 6 weeks. You see he faster sells everything to pay you or not.

The judge decides on what is pleaded in the Landlord's claim, which generally would be the full lump sum payment. It is not a choice on the part of the Tenant.

Debt incurred by the Landlord is immediately payable upon service of judgement on the Tenant.

Payment in installments would only be relevant if parties enter a consent judgement/execute a settlement agreement agreeing to a installment payment manner, where the quantum and date would be spelt out clearly.

This is the reply from TNB careline.

In the case that mini orchard presented, the amount might be to big to be ignored by TNB as the owner didn't bother to check the money owed on money basis. TNB apps already existed more than 3 years ago, that's how I check as it's ease me.

For smaller amount case, I believed the changing name and reconnection should be no issue.

Thank you for your deviation of subject and to put TS case in context to make it interesting, does the amount owed amounted as per your example or applicable to him as what I suggested?

Will not reply further. I already suggested solutions and provided info for clear clarification from TNB on the blacklisting and reconnection issue. Purpose of my reply is to help him. Not to nitpicking for the sake of it. I'm done here.

u can terminate the TNB under your name and ask them to register their own. so if they dont pay it's under their name. when they quit, then their responsibility to cancel it also.

It all start with a small tiny hill. Then it starts to grow bigger and bigger if left unchecked. Had 2 tenant electric bill 7.5K & water 2.5K, the other electric 3K and water 1K. Both also lari at the end. Always put their name and not ours as the account. Michael Chong selalu cakap, don't put your own name ar!!! Saw one of his press conference with a 700K electric bill before.
