What if the property fee is not paid and the elevator card stops?

Legal analysis: there is a contractual relationship between residential property and residents. It is the obligation of residents to pay property fees after enjoying property services. If residents default on property fees, the property company can bring a lawsuit to the court on the grounds of contract disputes. On the grounds of not paying the property fee, the property company used the elevator card to restrict the residents from taking the elevator, which violated the legitimate rights and interests of the residents, and the residents could sue in the people's court.

Legal basis: Article 944 of General Principles of Civil Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), the owner shall pay the property fee to the property service provider as agreed. If the property service provider has provided services in accordance with the agreement and relevant regulations, the owner shall not refuse to pay the property fee on the grounds that he has not accepted or does not need to accept the relevant property services. If the owner fails to pay the property fee within the time limit in violation of the agreement, the property service provider may urge him to pay it within a reasonable period of time; If the payment is not made within a reasonable period, the property service provider may bring a lawsuit or apply for arbitration. The property service provider shall not stop power supply, water supply, heat supply and gas supply to demand payment of property fees.
