dick turpin Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Folks no doubt getting their monthly bills. Notice mine is in the usual format with the final total in a darkened block. But this month has a further blurb below that which shows the newly introduced discount and what the final total is after this deduction. Argument with the missus is that we will still pay the original total and that this discount will be added to the next adjusted bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sigmund Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Wonder if those on leasehold in the pool villa developpments will benefit from the discounts ? As they pay their bills directly to the developpers. Usually the electric or water charged in housing developpment communities is more costly as the community managers take their cut. So better think twice even before renting in such places. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So better think twice even before renting in such places. Usually anything that goes through the managers of such gated communities, means a commission for those chaps. If you do things directly the price is usually less and often better done provided you are around, Get people who understand some english to do the work (or else use google translate throughout the process). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My refund of Bht389.83 was from a total bill of Bht4,383.46 so approximately 9%. Either it varies by PEA or it's scaled based on consumption like the tariff. EDIT. It's not based on this months consumption, I've just realised it's a refund on last month's. So the FT last month was 0.6689 the new FT is 0.2048, so the refund is on last month's bill calculated at the new fuel tax rate. .
