Separate your kitchen and other parts of your house where you use appliances that consumes much power from the meter and you'll never have to pay much. If you think i'm wrong, you can continue giving them your hard earned income for doing nothing. wink cool

jonaboy: . The last time I bought PHCN card was on 29/3/2013 that was 75 units by end of June I was still having 22 units left cos I hadly see light,to my shock instead of paying 1500 service charge for 3 months I paid 1800 being service charge for 2 months at 500 and 1 month at 800 not even 750. I was really mad, why should pay 1800 for someone else inefficiency,if there was constant light I don't think I would stay for 3 months before I exhuast 75 units. God help Nigerians.

[b]Hi peeps, i love all comments so far on thiS thread i think it is high time we all form an online association that will be enforceable offline, what i mean is that all our online efforts here will do but a little, those guys dont care they will still do what they want to do, until we form a formidable force of youths we cannot move any mountain. this is my proposal let everybody that love to fight for his or her right as a nigerian meet on this site or maybe someone shd open another thread cos im a little bit busy now, the thread will be for people who are ready for online and offline revolution, but everybody that wants to participate must be intelligent ooo not some idiots that will keep typing 1st to comment or garri stuffs or racial discrimination, lets try it out maybe it will work and we will have a chance of making our own footprints known in the transformation of this nation, mmmm i rest my case. WE CAN CHANGE THINGS FROM NAIRALAND TO NIGERIA THATS MY BELIEVE... CANT U SEE THE PICTURE?[/b]

Buben: PHCN and investors are set to make N1b monthly for doing nothing. PHCN and their new investors have increased the Fixed charge for Prepaid meters from N225 to N500 and now N750. We are told the target is N1000 monthly.

What this means is that, PHCN and the New investors, can go to bed, do nothing and still collect N1b every month from 1 Million subscribers of Prepaid meters. My God! How can this be happening?!

Wasn't the essence of the prepaid meters to ensure PHCN make electricity available and when it's not available, we don't pay as against the past when we usually paid NEPA for not giving Light?

With this introduction of High Fixed Charges, why would a company be willing to provide regular electricity when they are guaranteed a sum of N1b every month whether they work or not. I just don't understand the formulation of laws in this country.

Its such a shame what corruption has turned our politicians into. Monsters with no heart. This has to stop.

Its like GSM companies charging us N750 for just owning a Hand set. We are been charged N750 for owning a meter and yet we still pay electricity rates. Its wrong.

If you agree re-broadcast until it gets to someone in position to do something. If you just sit back, you never can tell what they will do next.

Charge you for your bore hole?

Its possible. Let's speak out now.

Revolution or Sovereign National Conference is long over due. You don't need an oracle to tell you that.

There's nothing anybody can do for you ( us ), until Nigerians decide that they're tired of suffering and smiling.

God himself hate fools too. Nigerians are presently the most gullible set of creatures on earth.

inasmuch as I don't agree with the first poster, the only other source of electricity is generator which is expensive. And he pays his taxes.....

I have posted this before:
Power generation can not improve in Nigeria unless we stop extortion and exploitation currently going on with the crude billing system introduced by Barth Nnaji. This crude billing method rewards govt and private investors (Nnaji inclusive) for generating zero power with fixed charge of #500 monthly. This monthly revenue is enough for any investors that generate close-to-nothing MW. Instead of letting these crooks who called themselves investors rewarding themselves for generating nothing, why not directly attach their revenue to what MW they generate, supply and consume by consumers using proportional increase in per unit charge. As against the current arrangement put in place by Nnaji to reward himself and his cronies in the power sector.

I learnt of this early this month wen I went to PHCN office to purchase credit. Got there and gave the female attendant both money and card and was surprised when she handed it back telling it wasnt enough to purchase credit saying sh1t bout some charges n that I hadn't purchased last month, what was most annoying was that I was confused bout the whole thing and told her to break it down only for her to tell me "I cannot talk too much" angry. Was so angry, I felt like reaching into her tiny cubicle and slapping the taste out of her tongue.

To achieve the type of success in the telecommunications sector, Like [size=15pt]NITEL[/size], the fraud called [size=15pt]PHCN[/size] must be dismantled and removed from anything called electricity generation and use in this country,or we are bound to have those roundly corrupt government officials corrupting the new system and preventing it from achieving any success at all.

Lovely.. A Criminal robbing a Criminal.. grin

These charges are bad, but we must not do a wrong thing to correct a wrong thing as 2 wrongs can never make a right.

What happens if every nigerian By-passes the meter?
