UK Government advises “Check your service charge statement”
Residential tenants are reminded by the COI (Central Office of Information) that they have a right to challenge service charges.
- check your service charge demands
- understand the law relating to challenges to service charges
- read your lease
- you can still challenge if you have paid your bill
- challenges are often based on charges been unreasonably high or workmanship being unacceptable
The Leasehold Advisory Service is a free service run by the government giving free legal advice for Landlords and Tenant leaseholders.
