    Hi
    Can someone help me please I am just sorting out an account with a tenant.

    Can someone tell me if the tenant is responsible for all of the electricity account, or does the landlord pay a part of the account. I am talking about the split between the supply charge and the usage charges on the bill. I have been told I do not have to pay any of the account and I just wanted to check as I don’t want to do the wrong thing by the tenant.

    Thanks[angel]

    I’m pretty sure, in all cases, the tennant should pay all the electricity bill.

    Tenant pays the bill.

    I have only had to pay for it between leases only once.

    Check what the lease states (assuming the tenant is on a lease).

    Ihave never heard of the landlord paying for part of the electricity before. The electricity should be connected in their name, so they are the ones responsible.

    Tennat pays. Tennant has connected the power in their name. If this is not the case get it sorted out now. They connect the power and disconnect it with the poer supplier when they leave. All liabilities are the tennants.
