Life at the Mar Menor Lets Office

No Electric for 2 weeks keep funds in your bank!!!!
06 June 2009 @ 20:33

I thought things were going well never a good thing to do.  One afternoon a couple of holidaymakers came in to say that when they returned from the beach they discovered Iberdrola had been to the aparrment and removed the electric meter!!!!

Four hours on the phone we discovered that the owner of the property had not paid the electric bill, further investigation discovered that when Iberdrola had gone to take money from the account there was not quite enough money there. Their answer to the problem was to send a letter that never got there and then remove the meter.

It took us just over two weeks to get electric back on including paying the bill, then having to pay  a reconnection charge

so life in the office has been far from dull but this is a warning to all of us with properties over here to make sure there are enough funds in the bank account to cover all the bills

I can empathise with the people on this as it happened to us. There was money in our bank account but it wasnt the account that euromarina gave to iberdrola when we signed the contract we were told just leave this account and it will dissolve. This happened to quite a few of us on the urby all turning up to a decomposing fridge/freezer. Be warned make utility companies have the right details and or money in the bank
