Our recent power bill was 8325.56baht for the month. We hardly run the dinning room and lounge air conditioners and only have the bedroom ones on at night. It seems to me that the inefficiency of the OLD air conditioners are contributing to the high electrical price. It is also noisy and does not cool anything down and I have asked for a new replacement but have not heard anything. Also, recently this air conditioner was running all day and not doing anything inside. That means we are paying for something that we aren't using!
Threatening the over charge us if we don't pay rent is reactive. If we had the service we deserve and pay for we would happily pay rent on time. I am also, like Jenny wanting to negotiate the price we are paying! 35,000 seems to be decent for the services we are getting. Please take this to the bank and let them know where we stand.
Tomorrow I will pay 35,000 Baht. 5000 less than the actual rent. 1000 will cover excess use of power and 4,000 will be put aside to pay for a new aircon. We have down some research and found some reasonably priced air conditioners.
Best regards,
