Hi there

For a second year running the woman who owns the freehold to our flat is not supplying any receipts of the charges she is charging us all.

Instead, she is has put together a Word document saying that electricity costs X amount, bank charges X amount, stamps X amount  etc.

SHOULD THEY BE ATTACHING RECEIPTS AND INVOICES WHEN ASKING FOR SERVICE CHARGE PAYMENT?

Thanks

She's not obliged to attach copy invoices to the summary but you're entitled under S 21-22 LTA 1985 to inspect the supporting documents.

This is a decent precis of how to go about it: http://www.lease-advice.org/faq/how-can-i-find-out-what-my-service-charge-is-being-used-for/
