OOps,I was shocked with my bill,i always pay an ave of 1300 every month and current bill is 4166,i thought i was reading someone else bill,i dont see the reason my bill has increased more than double as the variants are not just there,for example i stay alone in the house,i only go to the the house late evenings each day,i have no kids,the only things that takes power in my house is water cooler,and fridge,i occasional cook using elec cooker but that has always been my life style i mean what has caused the change?? i have been seeing any variable but dont see,also note im not going through rationing programme. AM just too sad,these guys have messed my week and then they say Pay before 3rd to avoid disconnections oops so ...........
The future belongs to those who plan for it

Guyz i hate to sound like an alarmist but i think i need to get this off my chest.Late last year a friend & i registered a company to audit Elec bills & lodge claims in cases where the customer has been overcharged.Atleast 80% of bills audited were erroneous with some for large consumers having errors running into thousands.Soon we begun getting threats & the 'system' forced us to close.I can bet you,s'one is £€$¥* you all the way to the bank!
May we live in interesting times!

@Mwenza. Paraphrase of: I would rather die for an idea that will live than live for an idea that will die. Crocodile tears: If you can't assist me when I'm alive en you attend my funeral. The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

My elec bill,KSHS290 bob!!!! yeah,very right around 6 50bobs!! Cant even buy 2 beers... Unbelievable! They must have missed a zero somewhere - and not infront of '2'!!! Bill of 11th to 26th. Well,its two weeks but still????????????????????? Something is seriously seriously wrong.... Even if i extrapolate it comes to around Kshs580pm vs over 3k last month. hehehehehehe.... ama vitu zangu za stima ziliharibika na sijui??? I'd better check what has been happening! But i know next month,nitaitana if some dude decided to 'estimate' downwards without reading the metre!!!!

Clearly you have a generous guardian angel or stalker...
Bright and interesting people talk about ideas.
Those of average intelligence talk about things.
Stupid people talk about other people.

Actually KPLC just passes thru the fuel adjustments. They buy expensive power from Aggreko among other IPPs. And y the effuuuck does gava insist on VAT & levies? With higher prices,they collect excessive VAT from us. And nunua fuel guzzlers. Greedy when others are fearful,Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase WB Greedy when others are fearful.

NEVER TALK OF A RHINO IF THERE IS NO TREE NEAREBY - ZULU PROVERB ...besides, the presence of a safe alone does not signify that there is money inside...

@Gizzard! Before Monday, I'd not been in my kitchen since August 4th! Hiyo bill si yangu! I expected something close to Wendz's figure! Ukipata mtu wa kupita naye KPLC, let me know I also pita with him/her!

Finally got the killer!The fuel cost adjustment for Aug was 616! cts per KWH. Forex Adj 75 cts. In June the figures were 468 and 62. Last yr Aug was worse with FCA of 769 and Forex Adj of 10. Anybody with Jul-09 figures? Crocodile tears: If you can't assist me when I'm alive en you attend my funeral. The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

@kagizzard,
have you gotten someone to 'pass' with at KPLC? Whats their explanation? Are they re-adjusting it ama tufanye Harambee when we come to Hutch?
