Good evening House,

I have been disconnected by PHCN (even tho there is prepaid meter)in the apartment l rented last year because of an outstanding bill of over 500k.The caretaker seems not be serious at all in trying to solve this issue. The annoying part is l just renewed my rent last month

Full Story Below

I rented an apartment last year, before l moved in l inquired about the light situation and l was informed and show the prepaid meter that was to serve me.

For the past year, l have not had any issues, the house is managed by a property management company and l have not hard an interactions with the landlord.

Last Month l received an outstanding bill from PHCN of over 500k, the guy said the bill was not cleared before the prepaid meter was installed. So the guy cut the light.

I informed the Caretaker of this, and they are saying the PHCN person that they paid the bill to and helped they secure the meter is no longer with PHCN.

So now the Landlord is refusing to pay the bill as he gave the caretaker money to settle the bill, the person that the money was paid to is no longer with Nepa.

The thing tire me. I have been without light going to a month, no water too.

Should l ask for a refund? Should l give them more time to try and resolve this ? I tire l need advice ooo

Any advice on how to proceed will be greatly appreciated

Can you easily get a refund?

Since l paid to rent an accommodation with light, if there is no light then refund my money they must

Get your refund and get another place.


Light stories don't end quickly especially with an absentee landlord.


Nobody will be ready to offset the old debt.


Stories upon stories.
PHCN will keep coming !

To them they have made a discovery.


It can be inconveniencing and annoying.

Are you ready to put up with that ?
