Split rent and bills without the argument
Agree the split once, then use the same numbers every month.
Step 1
Write the split before the first bill
Equal, or by room, or by income. Write it down. A verbal "we'll sort it" is how the argument starts in month three.
Step 2
One person pays the provider, the others pay that person
Rent, power, and NBN each need one payer. Chasing four direct debits is how someone gets marked late.
Step 3
Settle on a set day
The day after the main payday in the house. Send the amount, not a reminder a week later.
Step 4
Keep a one-line record
Date, who paid, amount, what for. That is the whole system. The splitter is that record when the house has more than two people.
