Electricity Company Claims To Offer 30% Discount On Unpaid Bills if ...

 

Electricity customers who owe the Enugu Electricity Distribution Company (EEDC) unpaid bills will receive a 30% discount if they pay before December 31.

The EEDC's spokesman, Mr Emeka Ezeh, said on Friday in Enugu that the bonanza, code-named "Arrears One-Time Settlement (OTS) Scheme," is to encourage bill settlement and also to mark the Yuletide period.

"The OTS Scheme is an initiative launched by EEDC to help customers pay off their accumulated bills."

"The discount scheme is available to commercial and residential customers, bulk communities, metered and unmetered customers."

"Interested customers should contact the 'OTS Coordinator' at the district office responsible for the area where they live or call our Call Centre at 084700100 for further information," he said.

Ezeh forewarned, however, that those refusing to pay stood the risk of supply disconnection.

He said the company had started its network maintenance to deliver steady power supply before, during and after the Yuletide period.

He reminded consumers that bills for November had been distributed and enjoined them to pay up promptly to avoid supply disconnection.

Ezeh expressed appreciation of consumers’ cooperation and stressed that steady power supply would be guaranteed only if they paid their bills.
