Questions clients ask
Should I pay a disputed bill?
Paying under protest or an instalment arrangement might avoid disconnection, but take advice, since it depends on the amount and notice.
What is a detection bill?
It is a charge for alleged unbilled electricity. You can ask for the basis of the calculation and challenge it if it is unjustified.
Where do I complain beyond K-Electric?
NEPRA and the Wafaqi Mohtasib are the usual next steps, depending on the matter.
