Description

Checking the utility bill as a tenant: Have you received a service charge bill from your landlord and are wondering whether the claim is correct?

Then you should take a close look, because many tenants simply pay – even though they are often not obliged to do so. At the same time, receipts are often missing and you can hardly understand the statement without checking it.
