Have you ever thought of auditing your home gadgets especially Electronic equipments in relation to their power consumption? I think this is the right time as the Electricity bill has hicked so much. You even need to check their power ratings just like you check the ingradients in food products before you buy.

By the end of the day,you will find yourself saving a lot of cash.

seems it's padaing every month. if we forecast into the future,we'll have to do without. time to seek alternative cheaper sources or as somebody rightly proposes,move to the streets.

seems kplc is also taking the advantage to make some extra bucks out of the sorry situation.

Life is too short.

Guys you are not alone... i thought the bill only increased to 21% look at the figures below...

By the way dont think about your own house bills think about the industries.. Unga Ltd must be using Electricity like crazy .. Where will this increase goto ? .. End product right ? so basically prices of everything will go up soon...

My office bill was 120,000 now it has come 240,000 ( Using our own generator of 60kva will consume 5k diesel everyday .. which comes to around 125k a month .. We are thinking of swicthing of KPLC and to go on Generator

My boss's house bill was 17-18k now its 44k

My house bill was 2900 now it is 4500..

Whats happening guys is KPLC looting people or what ??.. This will kill our economy

Is there anyone in this forum working for KPLC ?.. thinking of putting this in watchman in Daily Nation.. We should all gang up and write complain e-mails or letter.. what do others say




Happy Investing
