Where can one get an official copy of this circular? I need to make copies of it for reference purposes. Estimated billing is tantamount to daylight robbery

These people are not serious. If they want to be serious, they should do massive media campaign, radio, television, social media in all languages do that everybody will be informed. If they can even do town crier style self, they should do. You can't just pass information when 90% of the people that will benefit from it can't access the information. If they are seriously and they engage in massive media campaign, the DisCos will know that they Don buy bad market when people begin to challenge them when they bring all those outrageous bill and people will refuse to pay. Otherwise, this one will not work because the discos will still continue stealing from the consumers. My bill went from an average of 16k to almost 27k in a 2bedroom flat this January, why, I don't know. I don't even have AC or anything that consumes power. Worse is I can't even boast of 6hrs of light in a day.

Story.

EEDC is going about removing prepaid meter under the guise that it doesn't read when voltage is low. Now they remove the prepaid and place you on estimated billing as they don't have meters to replace d existing one.

U tell me EEDC will heed this ban?

Implementation is d real deal not all these rules
Aren't there meant to ensure the voltage is high, nawa oh

We have local government agencies and traditional rulers soundly educated most times. Mine is a practicing lawyer.
They should summon their people and relate these information to them.

Very pleasant news to hear. Those Discos are just going about fleecing people of their hard earned money. I was at one of the IKEDC office recently, and heard of the marketer talking about target, which means: it doesn't matter the energy consumed in that area, all that matters is ensuring money generated meets the expected revenue.

Re: NERC Stops Estimated Billing By Discos by TrendsSecurity: 12:10pm On Feb 26, 2020
Especially Ikeja Electric! If you see the way they keep coming every week to disconnect light even when you kust paid 8K the penultimate week. This is no gainsaying, It's a personal experience, I've instructed them to stop billing me, I'm not using their light again

I agree with you on this. I remember when NERC gave a similar directive last year, the disco didn't comply

The marketer is right, these discos have target like we see in the banking industry. Each district under Ikeja axis is apportioned certain amount per month.

Nigerians should try to be a little patriotic. I am a living witness to what NERC can do. NERC forced PHCN to cancel about 400k bill on my compound due to estimated billing and told them to install a meter in my compound or collect 5k monthly bill from us as against 35k they were bringing. All I did was just visit their office n they directed me on what to do. I did not know anybody there,I did not pay a Kobo to anybody, no lawyer.......nothing and they arranged a sort of tribunal where PHCN was like in a on a hot sit(many other complainants were also present for their own case). There are good structures in this country and there is hope for this country but unscrupulous elements who benefit from these things try not to make it work,but I tell u NERC is different. Just a little Patriotism from us and we are better for it
You were lucky that day
Re: NERC Stops Estimated Billing By Discos by Mosesibb: 4:50pm On Mar 10, 2020
ADEC is still sharing estimated bill to us oh and have refused to meter us, they just bring their estimated bill now to us, and write with a pen that we should pay #20,000 naira �‍♀️�‍♀️ but the monthly current charge is #4500 on the bill. And our net is 165,000, for over 6 months last year we no get light transformer blow but they keep bringing bills and all those bills make up that 165,000, January they gave us #31,000 and this month because Govt said they should not give people estimated bill again they reduce the bill to #4500� this people are criminals. We will pay only that #4500 thunder fire them with that 20,000 they wrote there� Na Ogun go kill them
