Peterw42 Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 (edited) OP, not clear if you are looking to buy or rent. If you buy a condo, its the government rate, your meter, your account direct with the electricity supplier. If you rent its up to the landlord. Most condos (individually owned) the bill will turn up in your mailbox and you pay the government rate. Its usually only apartment buildings, hotels etc, where an owner owns the whole building where they add on top for the electricity bill. Most places are Condos nowadays, once you move away from apartment blocks, guest hoses etc, the bill goes to you, not via a landlord. Just remember to check and ask when you are viewing.

FriendlyFarang Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 I've never seen an apartment charging the government rate.i I guess you are looking for a condo, not an apartment, at a condo you usally pay the bill directly to the supplier (MEA/PEA) and thus it's the government rate.

Everyman Posted March 19, 2022 Author Share Posted March 19, 2022 Since I’ve posted I’ve found that hongpak.in.th lists the electricity rate. Plenty of places charge 5 baht per unit. This place is too basic for me but it charges 5 baht per unit, for example. https://www.hongpak.in.th/rooms/25820-หอพักสินทวี-นครชัย?rf=hp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
