Eldeco threatens

We got a letter today from Eldeco asking us to pay the monthly maintenance deposit. If we fail to do so, our power and water will be cut off. We took possession of the flat last year August(2006) and paid an year's advance deposit. So, our deposit finishes only in August. However, Eldeco has always been very prompt in collecting their money, and so they have 'cared' enough to remind us 3-4 months in advance. Needless to say, any letters we write to Eldeco never ever elicit any response, leave aside a fast response!

Now comes the funny part. Eldeco has not furnished the accounts for last year. We really do not know where the almost 3k per house we are paying per month is going. I have some guesses, and I am sure you all will have the same guesses, but other than that, the company is silent on the accounts. Maybe Eldec officials need some urgent cash for their Merc maintenance.

The company has installed a single prepaid electricity system for the entire building for which we have to buy coupons in advance. This is when we had paid about 25k for a proper electricity connection from the electricity board. 25k*72 houses was eaten up by Eldeco, and instead they have taken one single connection from which they have submeters to each house. Now the best part, this prepaid system will be clubbed with the annual maintenance, and if you have some issues with the maintenance and want some answers, you have no coice but to pay up, else your water and electricity will be cut off.

Smart move, are they sadists or what?
