sben2308:First and foremost, write a letter to the Customer Care Unit of your Disco and copy NERC Forum office in your state. Ensure the letter is acknowledged at the point of submitting it. Then, wait for 15 working days from the day you wrote to your Disco. After 15 working days, write to the Chairman of the NERC Forum office(Forum) in your state. Attach a copy of the letter you wrote to your Disco, photocopies of your bills and make 8 hard copies. Then, take it to the Forum and submit. They will take further actions. 3 Likes |

edoairways: Let's do some calculation. Let's say NEPA charges #24 for KWh(killo watt per hour) for R2S Then 1000 watt = 1kW of which you pay #24 Let us assume you have a 40 watt electric bulb and you leave it on for 24 hours (say there is electricity 24/4) Now let us calculate the amount you are to pay. Energy = power (watt) x time (sec) we convert 40w to kw = 0.04kw You are charged #0.00666k for 1 second 0.04 x 24 x 3600 x 0.00666 you pay #23.01k for 24 hours 1 Like 1 Share |

The DISCOs bought terrible bad debts from FG. Now their strategy is to collect these fictitious debts from present occupiers. But most were owed by dead landlords, tenants that have moved out long ago etc. Most were from NEPA's staff collecting bribes from tenants or not doing their jobs properly! - ie going for meter readings OR settling complaints over genuine inflated bills) They should have removed the debts; allow another special purpose company collect the debts; pay the FG and they start afresh. Lots of biz owners make same mistake (buying lemons) with no reprieve from FG or anywhere. oz4real83: |

That's interesting but... |
Re: NERC Bars Discos From Billing Unmetered Residents Above N1800 by shadeyinka(m): 7:47pm On Feb 26, 2020 |
edoairways:That will not be correct because the DISCOs will never sell below cost price and moreover, if only they used the prepaid meters, they will have less overhead in terms of salary payment |
