Advice Needed On Rented Apartment by ugreat(m): 3:06pm On Mar 25, 2016 |
Dear friends, I rented a house at Okota via an agent about 6months ago.I made a mistake of paying for the place without seeing the phcn bill of the previous tenant. There was no electricity when I moved in and they agent said they disconnected it cos nobody was living there and that they were expecting prepaid too. Three weeks after paying for the place,the landlady(who's in charge) and agent hadn't fixed the electric yet. Cos of desperation I had to move in without electricity.Last month,phcn brought prepaid meter and then I eventually saw the bill of the last tenant(above N200,000). The problem now is that the landlady and the agent has refused to go and clear the bill,asking me to go pay for the last charge(which I didn't use). Please I need your advice on how to handle these landlady and the agent. |

ugreat:Don't bother to drag words wit them. Just walk into a lawyer's office to find out what your options are. The lawyer will take up the issue on your behalf for an affordable fee |
