📝 Notes & Considerations

• Rates are tiered and/or time-dependent; what you pay depends on usage and meter type.

• Exchange rates fluctuate—my euro conversions use a rough rate (~44 TL = €1).

• These figures reflect April  2025 updates; always check your actual Kib‑Tek invoice or website for the most current tariffs.

• Kib-Tek have a policy of disconnecting any property that has an outstanding bill of >670TL for more than 30 days.
