Anyone else who has noted this with their power bill? You mean you know your electricity bills? @mawinder, please take your stale comments to Dandora dump-site. You emaciated bowels cannot even pay electricity generated by the Lampyridae. I am on prepaid meter and have thus so far not noticed any unusual bill. So what was your question above all about? Sometimes try to be uaself even for a moment! You really admire the lifes of kina @wanugu and @rasta, remember they didnt boast about it for people to see, they simply acted it. Shut up.

Swing between 5 to 7k from 2.5 to 4k previouly! In the business world, everyone is paid in two coins - cash and experience. Take the experience first; the cash will come later - H Geneen

Where were we before we went post-paid? Portfolio: Sold You know you've made it when you get a parking space for your yatcht.

Report back with any signs of shifting payment paradigms. LOL A cheaper alternative that gives details of consumption is this; "Dear Customer, click www.kenyapower.co.ke/551 and register to receive your power bill on email and Free SMS alerts." You are the BOSS, choose the Better Option! The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

Our meter was changed in Oct..We bought 2000 worth token and got 102 units which lasted like 3 weeks.Another 2000 gave us 99 units another 2000 gave 97 now we are at 95 units for 2000. Beginning of Jan we did 1000 worth token and got 39 units So how are they calculated? Then hizo units zinaisha araka sana.Jan to now we have done 4350. Iko shida pahali. I have continually noticed that ones you start a new month and you exceed 1,500/- you move into a new charge block that has a very steep charge rate per unit of power. Comparing last year November vs October I lost 20 units for the same amount of money spent for a month. I have yet to recharge it to see what the new rates are. Yet most of the appliances running in the house are comps. The fridge is on part time and lights are L.E.D.s now that power is competing with gold. Am actually dreading it now that you guys have actually also noticed it. I heard Huru say that by end of year or something like that he will make sure the power rates drop to 33% of what they were Nov last year? Or will they rise now so that when they drop to 33% of what they are, they will be all what we already know?

(This will allow you to monitor and track every appliance's consumption in the house) If you input 080 then enter it will give you a the no. of unit consumption since the day before (24hrs).
