And who told you men should put on trousers? Did Jesus wear trousers? Where did you get that from if not the English man's culture? You're promoting the culture of a certain region while screaming culture is not the standard.

This is a kilt not a skirt. And kilts are worn by men, not women. So how is it Biblically wrong? The Bible wasn't culture specific. It says men shouldn't put on women's attire and vice versa. It didn't mention skirt, dress, trousers, shorts, etc. because some of these clothes weren't existing then or weren't worn in that part of the world. It is, therefore, up to people of different regions to identify what a man's attire is and what a woman's attire is. And what you call a man's attire today is specifically what the colonial masters' culture identified as a man's attire. People were not putting on skirts in the Bible. If you were colonized by the Scottish people, you'd certainly criticise any woman that puts on this same kilt cause you'd consider it a man's outfit.

Jesus wore long garments but it wasn't wrong because we know that's different from the gown worn by women, and that's what men of that region used to wear. Scottish men wear skilts. Why do you fail to appreciate the fact that it's a man's attire? Even the trousers men wear in Nigeria were introduced by the English man. Men used to tie wrapper, would you say that was biblically wrong too cause it was like a skirt? Isn't it way too myopic to judge the entire world using the culture of a certain region just because you were colonized by that region and yet have the guts to say culture is not the standard?

Sometimes, I just how some of y'all process things.

BusinessPlease Help Beg Gtbank To Reverse A Failed Pos Transaction by mactoni91(op): 8:38pm On May 28, 2022
Dear Nairaland,

I took some close friends out on my Birthday which was May 22nd to a Bar for some bottles of beer.

Upon payment with my card, the POS declined twice, they brought another POS which also declined with a message of ROLLBACK.

I was hoping a reversal would happen before the next morning but this didn't happen. I quickly logged in a dispense error the next morning so GTBANK would follow up with the merchant.

I was expecting GTBANK to request for the Acquiring Merchant's EOD for May 22 and SOA with a timeline to verify my claim, which they obviously didn't do.

Yesterday's COB makes it exactly 5 working days with my money still hanging.

Please help

CrimeRe: I Was Caught For Bypassing My Meter, What Should Be My Next Action Pls? by mactoni91(m):
WetinIsabi:
And I was thinking of doing the same thing grin

I moved into a new apartment with prepaid meter. When I was inspecting the flat the agent told me no worry, once you pay you go get light cheesy cheesy cheesy. Little did I know that the previous tenant was owing a mind boggling sum of money.

When it got to the time to recharge the meter IKEDC told me to cough out N100,000. I reported to the landlady, only for mama to insist vehemently that she cleared all arrears before the prepaid meter was installed. I went to IKEDC and discovered it was all lies! cheesy mama no clear anything!

The woman ghost me from that day till now. No light, no joy, I Don tire! Na to bypass the meter dey my mind now. I no fit settle debt wey I no incur.
Why want to add more burden to postpaid customers on your Transformer?

Now, let me explain how estimated billing methodology works.

We have a metered Transformer with a total 50,000 kWh reading for April.

A total population of 70 customers with 30 of them being Prepaid meter customers while 40 are estimated.

Now, the energy recorded and paid for from all prepaid meters is deducted from the 50,000 kWh while the remaining after removing (atc&c) is shared to all postpaid customers.

So, for every Bypass you do, just know you're indirectly pushing those energy hungry appliances cost to those without a meter.

Do not be decieved, your transformer is metered and the DISCOS sometimes are not to be blamed because they would get their money for the little service you feel they rendered.

What your transformer consumes from their HT feeder is also being accounted and paid for to the Generating companies.

Meter bypass is very evil.

If you see your neighbors bypassing their meter without informing the Discos, yet you complain of high bills, just know you're indirectly paying for that meter bypass.

Why not propose a solution/way forward with your Landlady. See if the Disco offers discounts for clearing up arrears, agree with your Landlady you'd pay up the arrears Whilst you get an equivalent waiver for your next rent(This agreement should be documented)

If your Landlady refuses, just know she's mean and evil.

You should consider getting a new apartment.

Now here's a tip, before you get any apartment, visit the nearest DISCO office to find out what the payment history of the apartment looks like. This information is usually free

johnpablo541:
As a first time offender your fine is 50k for a single phase meter.
Depends on the DISCO and if the ATC&C for that transformer is within the budgeted allowed ATC&C.

If it's within, then the 50k first offender may apply.

But if the DISCO has been losing plenty of energy in the past on that Transformer, then they'll likely recover some past losses from you.

Kindly desist from Energy theft or Meter bypass. You're contributing to the high billing of Post Paid Customers since most Transformers are metered.
CrimeRe: I Was Caught For Bypassing My Meter, What Should Be My Next Action Pls? by mactoni91(m): 7:33pm On May 24, 2022
You should be arraigned in court for Energy theft that's if you fail to pay the official penalty from the DISCO.

Penalty would be calculated based on the ATC&C recorded from your transformer for the duration of the bypass.

If your transformer has been having plenty of unbilled energy, get ready for a ride.

Foreign AffairsAnother Russian warship Has Been Hit By Ukrainian Neptune anti-ship Missiles by mactoni91(op): 6:15pm On May 06, 2022
Another Russian warship has been hit by Ukrainian Neptune anti-ship missiles, Ukrainian officials say.

The Admiral Makarov was said to have been sailing at the time close to Snake Island, in the Black Sea.

That is the very same spot where a border guard was filmed saying ‘Go f**k yourself’ to the Moskva warship – which was sunk by Ukrainian forces last month.

Yesterday US intelligence said it provided information that helped Ukraine locate and sink the vessel using two cruise missiles.
