Question by Franck (Orleans): “My tenant supports me that telephone consumption are not part of the charges and that he does not have to reimburse them. What about?”
Your tenant is right. Established by decree 87-713 of August 26, 1987, the list of charges recoverable by the owner, because paid in place of his tenant does not mention telephone consumption. Unfortunately for you, your tenant is completely entitled to refuse to reimburse them.
To put an end to this situation, you only have a solution: to terminate the telephone line. If your tenant wishes to continue to benefit from this service, he is free to contact the telecom operator to keep the line. In this case, he will hold the invoice and pay his consumption, not you.
