415volt:
How true is that

415volt: Last year my monthly consumption was increased from 300kwhr to 700kwhr.All they could give me as excuse was that I have no meter(stolen since 2010) because of that we have to bear the cost of those that are connected to PHCN supply illegally in my area.The man in charge told me that the monthly energy supply to a particular area has to be accounted for by house with bill but no meter.We applied for prepaid meter but nothing came out it.I was informed about the promo @ Abule Egba district (pay half of your outstanding bill to clear the remaining half) and quickly fell for it not knowing that its a ruse.Since October when I paid half the remaining is still reflecting on my bill.Presently, I have N35,000 on my bill,what about you.

WHAT!!! 35k? are u sure other houses are not connected to ur electric bill?

9icest: I run on the prepaid during the day, and on the direct line during the night That way I accumulate less....
Nothing wrong with getting even with a useless government parastatal that doesnt even give a damn if I sleep in heat or not.

adorable29: They are just outrageous! D marketer in my area (ugbowo zone in Benin) asked me to text her my meter reading on 28th Dec, which I did! Jan 7th, I was given a bill of 12k for just ONE MONTH! Wen I complained, d same woman (marketer) told me I gav her a wrong readin whc ♏αy v caused it to be that high! She said there is no remedy, that I just must pay it! No empathy wat so ever! I hp d privatization thing takes effect ASAP!

IzyLuv: Crazy ppLe... I was billed 5000 in nov nd i complained, d next month was #10,000... I paid nothin nd dis month, it became #19,000...#dia sorry asses wia petitioned, not by me dou... Sum1 of greater power!!!!... Now dey owe me #1,700:..

stagger: I was given a bill of N250,000 and I told them I was not going to pay. How can I pay for prepaid meter and three years after, I don't get it? I warned the NEPA people that next time they come to my house to collect it, my Caucasian dogs will be the ones to answer the gate.

Cherechy: I'm surprised people have to pay or bribe to get prepaid meter. We were at home one afternoon when PHCN people came in their van, assigned themselves to flats and started installing prepaid meter.
We all had to come out to ask what was going on, when we were told that henceforth we shud start going to their office for credit to recharge. We were told the metre charge will be substracted from each recharge till the bill is offsetted and dt was it.
Since then we've been having uninterrupted power supply except u're out of credit. Only once that we didn't have light for 3months cos some people came and did illegal connection from the transformer and the stuff blew, we agitated till a new one was brought, and it has been bliss!

Sincere 9gerian: See corrupt people full this thread. They'r not even ashamed of making their nefarious and corrupt practices public. Even some black market NL 'anti-corruption' crusaders are among them.
Smh!
