Error corrected. I pay N20,000 monthly and not N150,000

okay that is cool, how many hours of light do you enjoy in your area.

Our transformer can sometimes be quite erratic. It always blows something if it rains. Sometimes it takes 3 days to restore fully.

If the transformer is ok. We get light from 8AM to 5PM daily. The light is then switched on at 8pm again to 4am in the morning. I close at 6 so I use gen for only 1 hr under normal circumstances. In this scenario I use N5000 worth of electric bill weekly.

I think it is fair then.

I got permission from the FCCPC team to post this.

Do you know that there is a dedicate phone no that you can use in reporting your electricity wahala to FCCPC?
you can call the phone no during work hours or WhatsApp or SMS outside work hours, I will post the number as picture because of the bo ts.
I am sure you will get justice if you are cheated by your disco and you have your documentation right.
Be truthful with the FCCPC team with your information and you will get justice at no cost.
I trust the madam that handle this issue.
you can share your experience here as well to enable others learn.

Does this number apply also to customers of Abuja Electricity Distribution Company or only for Lagos?

Everyone can use it. The no is even domiciled in their Head office in Abuja, so you even have more advantage.

edimalo:
maybe Lalasticlala, seun , Freiburger r231 can now push this to the front page atleast if not for anything to encourage other people to fight for their right.
and that if we have a solid case FCCPC is right at our back and they would protect the interest of the party that is right.

Bro goodmorning, thanks for the update and pushing for your rights and also making people know that we can actually force a change in this country.
Me and my bro are living in a self con apartment in portharcourt.
May our bill was 11k, this was atleast commendable considering the fact that the previous bill was higher. June bill was 26k we paid 13k, this was after i complain to the marketer that the bill is too much considering the fact that nothing change in the supply of power between these months.
Yesterday the worst happened, they brought bill and when i checked it, it was 57k...
For a self con apartment..
Meanwhile there is a postpaid metre in the compound but they probably don't want to take readings from it citing directives from authority..
How can i go about this issue?
I met one of their employees and the guy said they have stopped issuing and receiving payment for prepaid meters.
This is what we r facing here

Hello Mr, make I share this small story with you concerning this electricity matter.
Sometimes around February 2019, I moved from Lagos to Magboro at Ogun state due to my padi wey dey the area but before I moved in, he already told me how the electricity things be for the area.
Then, this is how they rotate light, 9am to 5pm(On) and before the 5pm reach, Dem don take ham till the next day evening, meaning from 5pm till the next day 5pm before they go bring ham back.
I tell my padi say no wahala unto say he just buy one new gen for him 2bedroom apartment believing that I will be using his Gen whenever I needed it.

NOTE:- The apartment wey I wan rent no get light but the agent wey dey in charge promise me say them go use my money do ham at least in the next month. I say no wahala. And then, I was into Blogging thinking it will be done as been said but my BLODER...hmmmm...
One month pass, two months pass, tiri months pass till my blogging things wey I dey thing say I go start to dey see money Summersault and collapse.

One year pass, no light for our building wey be say na the house you go first see before you enter my street, and the funny thing be say, na the building dey for junction. kai, and wife dey for three months belle.

see enh, I no fit talk wetin my eyes see for my wife hand, my mama and my in-laws them for dis light mata and still, my landlord con die last year 2020 uptop.

ALL the money wey I invest for my blog just go like that simply because of the unstable electricity wey will get for this country.
no money, no shishi again till and after my wife give birth.
there was a certain time wey be say d light con spoil pa-ta-pa-ta wey con make my friend run comot go Ikorodu as money for fuel no con dey again.

HA...GOD ALMIGHTY, I BLESS YOU OO.
NA so God Almighty bless me with one big blessing. First thing, I go buy Solar/inverter dey use that one dey power all my gadgets, my 43"Hisense TV , follow come standing fan and 2 bulbs and extra 2 with my Decoder for 24/7 for my lil kid. I later con join ham with one big gen just for AC, iron, cooker and pumping machine.

see if I tell u say na Me and one other tenant con later drop some money to do the light wey that house con later get.
After wey I don dey enjoy my solar/inverter for the pass 8months now.(But na God Almighty help us for that one)

see enh, now my area light don worst pass before, Dem go bring ham for 10 hours and take ham for good 48hrs, meaning 10hrs on and 48hrs off.

2 cut d Tori short...GO BUY SOLAR/INVERTER And have ur Gen wey u go dey use pump water only.
believe me, I only used my gen 10times just in 8months for 1hrs each maximum.

I use beebee jump for the solar/inverter

sorry my brother,
complaining to marketer is a mistake and has no effect, He won't do anything as he is part of the people that brought that decision to you.
Also paying 13k out of the 26k is like telling them I agree to what you brought but I can only pay 13k out of it, I will advice you write them officially and allow them to acknowledge a copy of your letter.
Also write to Nerc in your area, which I believe is
Port-Harcourt Forum Office
No.15 Okuru Road, Off Peter Odili road
Adjacent Golf Estate , Off Ordinance Road
Port Harcourt, Rivers State

Email address: phforum@nerc.gov.ng

it is better you write a letter to them as well and allow them to acknowledge a copy of the letter but this is after 15 days you have writing to PHEDC and you didn't get a favorable response.
also chat or call the FCCPC people I put their contact above to get their response regarding your case.

You need to find out the service band and tarriff class of your meter location. Next, you need to contact IE CustomerCare and find out if there is any debt on the Meter. If there is, it is usually deducted in installments at every token purchase until the debt is wiped off.

None of the DISCOs charges that much for a kWh.

sir,
Kindly check your account, I want to believe that there is a debit on the account.
No tariff is up to that as you can see from what is been posted above.
To know your band, you can send an email to them to find out the band you are placed or check your last post paid bill if it is not to long, you moved to prepaid.

Are you in based in Port Harcourt and you are having different issues with PHED concerning your electricity bill or any other thing.

Let us keep on bombing them with emails. MOJEC is one of the MAPs that has some issues with CBN so that might explain the delay.
