Default Eden Norte

Well, they've done it again
During the month of May, Costambar has been blacked out on average of 7 hours per day in spite of the fact that everyone in this community pays their electrical bill.
So what does our wonderful electrical company do for the May bill---THEY ESTIMATE IT---the estimate being identical to the previous months bill--so they get to play with the consumer's money for 1 month
This company is a law unto itself supported by corrupt politicians.
The time has come for Dominicans to take the law into their own hands

get yourself an inversor.this way you have power during blackout and the recharging of the batteries will bring you closer to the "estimate" and straighten out the bill a bit.maybe even in your favor.

I would check my own consumption by reading your meter yourself. Monitor how many kw/hrs you use over a few months and compare it to what they are charging you. You could then argue your case Endonorte. This would be a good test to see if real reform is happening within the electrical sector.

People already started taking the law into their own hands. Yesterday 2(two)Edesur trucks were burned by "encapuchados", perhaps our future liberators, in the southern part of the country. Riots are breaking loose in San Juan de la Maguana,Barahona, Baoruco province, San Cristobal and others. The North has already broken out in Licey al Medio and Navarrete, and the Capotillo people in Santo Domingo gave a reprieve to the government, but they will be back, because the government will not be able to produce.

It is too bad that the only thing these modern Capones from Edesur and their government patsies and Hipolito will understand is street violence. But that is the way it looks like it's going to be.

Don't waste your time with Edenorte and Edesur. Nothing works with these people. I am going out more and blacking out my own home. It is now cheaper to eat out and do everything out than staying home.

The point I was trying to make is that we received an estimated bill because they know the actual bill would be less than the previous month's bill, given all the black outs during May-which is another way of saying that they unilateraly decided to charge us more than what we used--just another example of their indifference to the consumer.
This company can do anything it wants with the blessing of the government
