Sketches of Life|Life Lived in Simplicity

Let me share something about one of our student apartments here. I blog about it in my other blog.

Our tenants left after only 4 months of staying there. They breached the tenancy agreement of one year. Not only they did not pay for this month’s rental, they left us with 3 months of utility bills that comes up to more than RM1k. Thank God the Streamyx line can be transferred to my home because they took the 1 year package; use or no use still have to pay. So I cancelled my home Streamyx and transferred theirs to mine.

A few days after they left, hubby went to clean the apartment and just realized that 2 of our double decker bed frame are gone! The Queen Size bed frame is also broken!

Yesterday, when we went to thoroughly clean the apartment, I discovered that a set of curtain is gone from one of the rooms. A blogger friend of mine and her friends are staying there today. After they left, I am going to bring home all my curtains.

Arabs student should be rich right? You know what? They even took away the AAA batteries from the air-cond remote control! Besides that the air-cond is not working too and the gas stove is not working as well. Now I am wondering whether the washing machine is working; forgotten to try it out yesterday.

One of the rooms, they painted it red and did not repaint it back to white as agreed. That is expected lar.

The amount of deposit is not enough to cover for all of the above.

Lesson learnt:
1. No more allowing them to repaint any rooms.
2. If they want internet, get them to apply for the prepaid ones.
3. No more providing curtains for them.
4. WYSIWYG – What you see is what you get. Not going to replace the stolen bed frames.
5. Inform the apartment management to cut the water supply if the tenant did not pay after a month.
6. Request TNB to do the same too. If they can do it in my apartment, why not in this apartment?
7. Increase deposit for utility bills.
