What to check
- Check the contract holder and the actual person responsible for paying electricity, city gas, water, district heating, and maintenance fees (관리비).
- For each supplier, check whether bills, meters, automatic transfer (자동이체), virtual accounts (가상계좌), and card payment are available.
- When you move, you may need to settle move-in/move-out charges (전입·전출 정산) and change the name on the contract (명의변경).
- Check late fees, power/water cutoffs (단전·단수), deposits, and responsibility for unpaid maintenance fees against the contract and the supplier's terms.
What K should not answer
- "How much will my utility bill be?"
- "Do I have to pay this bill?"
- "Will it be cut off right away if I'm late?"
The questions above require checking the contract, the bill, and the supplier.
