Hey guys

Can someone help me out please. I've charged my tenant pro rata for bills as she moved out mid month. I used the last bills as a guideline to calculate what to charge. She's arguing i can't do this as it was colder in april/may than it is now and i'm overcharging her. I'm new to all this so i'm wondering what happens. Btw the apt is owner occupied and she is the only tenant.

Thanks

Why not just take like a 100/150 euro deposit for esb etc bills and then the last bill comes out of that and the remainder is refunded. Then each month when the bill arrives you can calculate easily.
