Article 1728ter of the Civil Code provides that the lessor must reimburse the excess provisions for charges that he has received, upon simple written request from the lessee. All lease contracts are drafted in this way and no particular case would mention the contrary.
In most cases, the leases stipulate an automatic adjustment of charges in both directions, which avoids misunderstandings. This is why it is important to check that your rental lease mentions the following clause: “On receipt of the statement of charges, the lessor or lessee will immediately pay the other party the difference between the provisions paid and the actual charges ”.
Note : An adjustment of provisions for charges is possible during the 5 years following the last payment of the provisions.
