Electric Service
what charges can I file against someone who is using electric service in my name without my knowing about it?
I rented out a house that still had the electric service in my name. I just found out the guy did not transfer the service into his name and I am being charged for his electricity useage. What legal charges can I file against him? And, can I turn the electricity off since it is in my name, even though he is living in the house? This is in the state of Ohio.
Thanks in advance for anyone who helps me with this situation!
Not only can you turn the electricity off, you SHOULD have cancelled your service.
Is it written the tenant is responsible for electrics?
If so, you have a case, but you were certainly negligent.
You should present the tenant with the electric bill and request they transfer service into their own name.
