THE ANNOYING PART OF POWER DISTRIBUTION COMPANY IN MY AREA.

I am so happy to be part of this week's contest and I have been planning to join the contest in previous weeks but I am glad this week's topic sparked my interest and it reminds me of a story about my street, the power distribution company and the other street people.

Normally in this part of the country it happens that at times we pay for light but we do not see it. I remember a street that I used to stay, when month ending was getting closer you would see the power distribution company officials coming around with huge bills and you would wonder why you would be paying for the power that you were not using. The funny thing is that after a week of giving the huge bill they would come for disconnection, this was always the situation.

The painful part of it is that there was a time that phase had a serious issue and we did not have light for about three weeks, we reported to them and nothing was done, weeks turned into a month and still nothing was done, we decided to buy wire and insulator and tap the light from a nearby street, we paid for that to be done and it was successful because we informed them. Now the shocking part of it is that immediately after the light was fixed the following week they brought the bill and guess what, the bill covered the months that we did not have light, it was so annoying, we complained bitterly but nothing serious was done, their advice was for us to pay what we had and leave the rest.

But all thanks to God that was sorted out and later on I relocated from that area.

Thanks for reading my first entry in the community, I am @nsigo1.

We always pay outrageous amount of money as bills for electricity we did not use at all.

As Innnn very annoying
They will say you have postpaid meter which no dey read, they will still bring the ones they calculate from their office. A duplex house will be paying same amount of bill for a bungalow house imagine they do this mostly in my area.

They knew you guys didn't have light and still yet they brought the bill, how come the light you didn't use was read in the meter. Imagine

My sister I wonder ooo

When the light has fault, we contributed and fix it, and we still have to pay.

Is it not the duty of the company to fix their properties?

This country is funny aswear
