RE: The Reality of Power: Why Constant Electricity Shouldn’t Be a Luxury
That's terrible, I can't imagine how difficult it is to be without electricity for so long, but even worse, making you pay for when it isn't working?? That's insane. You should not have to pay when there is no service. We have a post-pay system here, but it's part fees and part usage, so if you're not using it, your usage would be less. However I think if there is an outage for long enough, you can get a deduction on your fees cost as well? I'm not sure though. In my case, the fees are half of my bill on average. For a big family in a big house that uses a lot of electric, the fees are probably only a small fraction.

It's actually not easy living without power supply for that long, from having to do almost tasks that has been made easier via technology manually to having to pay for electricity we didn't use.
Unlike your place, most post paid meters here, just randomly charged houses the same amount monthly, regardless of if you have electricity or not and that's why it's a theft in disguise.
Prepaid meter, solve that, cause if we recharge it, it won't read or reduce the unit we purchased in as much as there's no electricity.
We hope something would be done soon.
Thanks so much for your kind words, and wonderful gift.
