Owner shared a quote with Aed 1.25 less than the contractual maintenance amount
Hi, I am first time renter in Dubai. I feel like my owner is trying to bluff me.
A few weeks ago my water heater broke, I had to call emergency maintenance (paying 100 aed) because the water was dropping everywhere. They told me the water heater needs to be replaced. I asked them how much it would cost, they said nearly 900-1000. It's a 80 liter, ariston water heater.
I have got a quote from the building maintenance for 950. My owner has shared a quote with 498.75 (anything above 500 they will have to pay), also at first they called me and said its gonna cost 450 so I will have to pay, then I asked for quote and they shared this (Image, looks very sus) I am trying to get other quotes, I am sure they will be higher than this, but how to proceed?
Also, someone told me to contact the same company and get a quote from them itself but what if owner says that they have got a personal discount or something?
