From the 6.5 months I only stayed 5.5 months. Everything was turned off/minimum for one month.

Moved in 15th November, out 30th April.

I paid 260 CHF Akonto every month.

3357 CHF
divided by 5.5 months

is: 776,53 CHF every month

This is ridiculous!!!!!

  1. It doesn’t matter at all how much YOU heated. Unless there’s sensors on your radiators to measure your consumption , heating cost is distributed by a fixed formula between apartments. Normally this is done by square footage or volume of the apartments. You seem to be paying 1/10th of the total cost. Which would be totally normal if there’s 10 equally big flats in the house.

    Apart from the heating costs, all numbers seem very reasonable. And oil/gas prices went crazy 2 years ago. Depending on the date they bought the oil/gas which was used last winter, it’s no surprise that heating costs could be 200-500% more than it has been in the past.

    And you’d know this if you hadn’t been living under a rock for the last years…

    If you think they aren’t being honest, demand to see the original receipts.

  2. the only problematic I see is the Verwaltungshonorar of 4%.

    According to several cantonal court decisions and according to a statement of the Federal Housing Office (BWO 32 No. 12) flat rates for the Verwaltungshonorar of a maximum 3% are considered as usual, 4% is too much.
