How Do I Tackle My Stubborn Tenants Who Has Refused To Pay His Phcn Bills by Tobium1(op):
Hello nairalanders, I really need your advice/comments on this. My tenant has been a thorn in my flesh, in the sense that, he has been accumulating his phcn bill for quite a long time now (7months to be precise, amounting to about N127000). Pls, i'ld like to hear from folks in the house on how to deal with such stubborn tenant.
Btw, the Last tenant cleared all his bills before vacating the house.

Dear mods, please do the needful for an enraged nairalander

such a person are everywhere, disconnect his light and forget about his huge debt.
Re: How Do I Tackle My Stubborn Tenants Who Has Refused To Pay His Phcn Bills by lonelydora:
Just disconnect the light to his flat or call PHCN to do it, as simple as that.


If it gets to the level you want him out, Tell him you want to renovate his flat, and call in a carpenter days later to start removing his roof. Thank me later. Well, this method only works in Ikwerre land, do not try it elsewhere.

127k in 7 months? Does he live alone in an estate? I live in a 5 bedroom dup and I dont accumulate that much...
Something is wrong here, and thats why he isnt paying.... Has he been paying before now? Or maybe the bill was accumulated before he moved in...
Find out his concerns and try to work it out with him.

But if you ask me, theres something you arent telling us.

127000naira in 7 months, is he operating a refinery there? That is the reason he is not paying. As a landlord, try to help him to complain to Nepa about the crazy bill. It is not only your rent that you should be after. Seek for welfare, progress, well being, convenience of your tenant too. If you don't show concern of their problems, you are on your own when they begin to rebel
Re: How Do I Tackle My Stubborn Tenants Who Has Refused To Pay His Phcn Bills by Alexgeneration(m): 6:37am On Aug 18, 2016
Pls answer these questions before you "tackle your tenant. Do you have the light in your area? How did the bill amount to #127000,just in 7 months? Have you asked the tenant the reasons why he refused to pay?
