Posted: Mon Sep 24, 2012 5:18 am Post subject: How much are Utility Bill late fees? |
|
|
I did a quick search and couldn't find anything on the matter.
The deadline to pay my gas bill was last Thursday so I missed it by about 2 business days. Just wondering what kind of late fees I should be expecting on a 20,000 won bill? I have never forgotten to pay a bill before, it just slipped my mind this week, so I'm not sure how much they charge. Also will the fee just be tacked on to next months bill? Thanks |

Maybe 5,000 won, tops. Fear not. I once didn't get a bill and didn't notice it right away. By the time the next month's bill came, I saw that they'd added that balance and about 5,000 won as a late charge. |

I believe they usually charge a percentage, but it's very small. My apartment management fee, for example, seems to be 2%. So if I'm late paying my bill of 150,000 won, the late fee is just 3,000. |

Good to know, I was expecting it to be around that much, seems fair. Thanks for the info. |

Mine was 50 (o-baek) 0,050...I repeat 50 cents in US dollars for paying a month late. Late fees in this country are a joke. Don't get me wrong, I'm loving every bit of it. |

My apartment charges 10%. Then again, it's a cheap apartment. |
