It's high time NERC starts punishing NEPA officials by sacking or surcharge over non compliance or else,it will lose its credibility as Nigerians now see it as a body dt is out to inflict punishment covertly on Electricity in the guise of customer rights protection.

You keep saying this yet, you go out there and demand money before you install meters for customers.

Ambiguity leads to confusion

Just talk in normal terms, you are paying this amount or it's free, which one is under this or that programme

What if I'm not under the programme or what qualifies one to be under the programme

In the light of meter issues, my dad's area transformer has been marked for prepaid meter giving, since last year up till now no meter giving yet they bring bill to him his own flat 3 bedroom was given an estimated bill of 38,537 naira for September bill which he paid 15k, which I complained of and was told it's a general issue they will bring down the prize now October bill came out last week and he was given 61,702 as bill to pay, when I showed one of the BEDC guy the bill he shouted if it's a factory, he said he is confused with the bill that they will work on it and what's in my dad's house are fans, deep frizers, pumping machine for water, tv and I wonder how come they still pay 15k per month and am not talking of the two bedroom 2 flats and a bedsetter apartment bill which is an issue on its own....I can post the bills for confirmation so that the appropriate personnel can look into this matter, the area is in alegbo off pti road no 4 close to Bethesda gospel church, effurun, Delta state...my no 08066319486.

Consumers are not only paying, they are buying it in high price. Who is decieving who?
Re: Electricity Consumers Not Required To Pay For Meters Under NMMP — NERC by romero(m): 12:32pm On Nov 16, 2021
1. The major reason the Discos shared free meters under the Mass metering program is to Collect Outstanding accumulated debts on assumptions or estimated Billings.

Debts from estimated bills were thereafter transferred to prepaid meters. You then pay as u buy units monthly.

This is the major reason most houses with new bills or Without accumulated debts were not given free meter.

2. Similarly, the Discos increased electricity tariff again by more than 100% Immediately these prepaid meters were shared. N1k unit which was 34 klwts Became 14.9 klwts . With N2,500 u will get 100 units b4 ; but now N7,000 gives u 100 units.

3. Using prepaid meter doesn’t pay again these days bcs of my No 2 point above
Unfortunately, we are hearing a rumor the Discos want to increase charges on estimated bills to N24,000 from N11,800 to force people to buy their exorbitant prepaid meters tru MAP

Re: Electricity Consumers Not Required To Pay For Meters Under NMMP — NERC by Tokskob2008: 12:40pm On Nov 16, 2021
This guys are liars...

The best they can do is give free 100units on the metre and not the 70k worth of token they are claiming.

What type of meters did the Federal Govt. Make provision for, under the NMMP?

ENUGU Electricity Distribution Company (EEDC) were distributing Postpaid Meters during the first phase of the Federal Gov. Mass Metering Programme.

Failed country run by confused government..

@ 61 years still talking about giving out electricity meters to consumers, with epileptic power supply.

It’s only in Nigeria you see PHCN officials going around with ladder to disconnect power from defaulter consumers.
Are you normal?

This country sef! Always another cup of tea to implement what is written on paper.
That was how I paid for 3 electric poles +cables to connect my house which of course became NEPA property. & they still came afterwards to extort 10k per pole.

Lol. Even why you are trying to get the metre self they still ask you to open account for the metre and still ask u to activate the account and start charging for metre they have not even installed for u why u are still buying unit on the metre u are shearing with your neighbour. They must sha find a way to swindle people
