Order

An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the Landlord name and identifying details.
The tenancy of Tuahana Alice Haronga and Hireme Cameron at [Tenancy address suppressed] is terminated, and possession is granted to [The landlord/s], at 12 noon on Tuesday 28 October 2025.
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $2,200.00 ([Bond number suppressed]) to [The landlord/s] immediately.
Tuahana Alice Haronga and Hireme Cameron must pay [The landlord/s] $3,463.50 immediately, calculated as shown in the table below:

Reasons

The landlords attended the hearing by telephone today. I telephoned the tenants however both phones went to voicemail. I continued with the hearing as the tenants have been emailed notice of the hearing date and time to their addresses for service and been sent text reminders.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears and payment of outstanding electricity costs and refund of the bond.
Rent was at least 21 days in arrears on the date the application was filed. The law requires either a final or conditional termination order to be made. (A conditional order allows the tenancy to continue as long as repayments are made towards the debt). See section 55(1)(a) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
The tenancy will terminate at 12 noon on Tuesday 28 October 2025. The landlords have the legal right to possession of the property after this time.
The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing to 23 October 2025 is $4,575.00. I have added rent for 24 to 28 October 2025 which is $410.71. Total rent owing is $4,985.71, which is awarded.
The landlords supplied a spreadsheet showing electricity costs (consumption and fixed charges) and I accept their oral evidence that this is accurate and relates to only the tenanted premises. Total costs from the start of the tenancy to 18 October 2025 are $859.79. The tenants have paid $210.00 towards this. The balance left to pay is $649.79 which is awarded.
Broadband costs are included in rent. The landlords say there was an oral agreement with the tenants that they would pay Netflix costs. No claim was made, and some documentary evidence is generally required before an award will be made.
I suppress the landlords’ names, as requested and because they have been successful with the claims.
The bond is refunded to the landlords and the balance is payable by the tenants.
