Refuse service to renters
A:
You have not provided sufficient information for a response. Do you have a copy of the contract between the appliance repair company and the utility company? Is the appliance in question covered under the terms of the contract? If it is, I would recommend that you contact your utility company and report the incident. As they are the party that engaged the repair services company they can resolve this on your behalf.
Good luck.
