Where are you based..if in lagos go Ponle or Ikeja fill a form requesting for prepaid meter single phase as the case may be they would request some payment and if you get estimated bill like mine wey be 500k plus then had to pay 115k to activate the meter..minimum payable amount after which una go agree on the repayment plan.

Hope NERC is not up to something sinister. Never trust any policy under this government.

They r surely up to something. I don't ever trust them. This is like the second or third time they are changing meters. So a meter that is not bad nor destroyed why change it? Thief people. Useless people.

For the negative commenters, this is nothing to do with NERC. It's a universal problem that affects 70m meters globally.

It's a feature of STS meters wherein the counter which sets individual token IDs will exhaust all possible permutations of its 24-bit register by November 2024 and will thus reset the stack to zero. When that happens, all tokens generated on the legacy STS standard will be invalid.

The legacy counter started counting in 1993 and this known as the Base Date with Key Revision Number 1 (KRN1)

Updating your meter will start a new counter set at 2014 to expire at 2045, as the new Base Date with KRN 2.

You only need to key in 2 sets of 20 digit tokens called Key Change Tokens to upgrade your meter. It takes a few seconds only.

Go to their office and request for a meter...they would ask you to fill a form.

SalamRushdie:
Idiot NERC the again increased Tarriff rate this month secretly

I recharged 1000 naira worth of light and got 247.9 units, I am surprised if something is wrong?
I know it supposed to be lower than 50units.
I had to double check Incase I pressed 10,000 naira without knowing.

Then why is thousands of ibedc meters not accepting token after upgrading.

It's probably an error because even 10k can't get you 247 units today

After updating are they going to give free units if yes no probs if no then it's crazy

Lagos landlords don see chop be that oo because this one they will put it on their tenants...

I have tried doing that but not working yet. Seems they have not started though.

They should stop troubling Nigerians with nonsense unproductive activities. What exactly is the benefit of this update? Update where they can pilfer one one naira per user once you recharge? Some folks are barely feeding they want to use back door to introduce another draconian law. Nigerians should resist this nonsense.

All it cost is to input a free random code from your disco.. finish..

Nigerians with drama smh.

By the time you cannot recharge due to negligence of the update you will come and type bigger stories here

ANOTHER LEVEL TO ESTIMATED CORRUPTION.

Please do take time out to go re-read that post to comprehend. Trust your day is going great?.

Perhaps firmware issues. I've seen this with some specific meter manufacturers.

jmoore:


It is a worldwide update. Not peculiar to Nigeria.
It only requires a keychange that is inputed via the CIU by the customer.

Explain what you mean to readers. They need further elucidation on the scheme.

Pls educate us.
