WARNING WARNING
We have an apartment, that is rented out
through a Serviced Apartment Scheme.
Approx 1yr ago a tenant, who had been staying
in our apartment for 4 weeks paid her bill
with a Credit Card, which was declined, she
turned to her sister who then tendered her
Credit Card and settled the account.
6 months later the sister, questioned the
transaction, and even though we had proof
that, there were witnesses to the
transaction, autherisation was requested and
given the Credit Card Comp cancelled the
transaction.
We then approached our Landlords Insurance
for loss of income, only to be informed that
our policy does not cover serviced apartments.
MY POINT IS
1.WHATS THE POINT OF GETTING CREDIT CARD
AUTHERISATION, IF SIX MNTHS LATER THE
TRANSACTION CAN BE REVERSED.
2. HAVING LANDLORD INSURANCE IN A SERVICED
APARTMENT SITUATION.
I would appreciate any comments.
