Xwizard:Call the phone number and try pally with the person. As much as possible, see if you can meet at a neutral location but make it clear you are ready to pay part of the owed amount. But PR some of it and still pay a token for reconnection. It will work out |

Buhari and the political class are doing their part, we the people are also doing our part in running this country to the ground. ....cant our leaders see how things are done in the US. UK, Canada and the whole of Europe. Well can't the followers also see the behavior of the people in these places. 1 Like |

Xwizard:why did you recharge? You would have told them you have been away for like 7 months now. You cannot recharge while you are away |
Re: I Was Caught For Bypassing My Meter, What Should Be My Next Action Pls? by playcharles(m): 1:06pm On May 25, 2022 |
Can you imagine.. you bypass without recharging, see ehhh there is usually a monthly list that shows your usage and recharge... they usually go after the recharge list. If you are so wise to bypass atleast recharge 1k monthly and try as much to alternate once in a while |
Re: I Was Caught For Bypassing My Meter, What Should Be My Next Action Pls? by alizma: 1:10pm On May 25, 2022 |
Xwizard:Try to get in touch with any PHCN staff around your area who will now take you to their office to negotiate your fine. You may spend close to 100k. If you go alone, the law will be read to you as it is, be wise. |

Bros OP you're not smart (sorry to say) ![]() The smartest thing to do in cases whereby you bypassed your prepared metre is to, atleast, recharge the metre with 500naira every 3weeks or once a month; that way NEPA go still dey dia office dey reason am say Dem still dey chop your money Wella; via ur constant monthly recharge of 5h ![]() How you think say NEPA go feel wen Dem dey look their computer screen since 8months and system dey tell Dem say u no dey recharge at all at all and yet Dem pop in your area unannounced only to see full current at every corner of your house you sef check am naa If na you u no go provoke? Dis matter fit land u in court If you no handle am well o And that quick online recharge u did? That's another evidence AGAINST you. 2 Likes |

StarryV:you're very evil to your employer I pray you loose your job soon,this guy is cheating your company and you're telling him to settle it with the marketer knowing well the money will not go to the company's account.So if they fold or retrench their workers and he happen to be a victim what will you say of the company you have worked for the Government of the day concerning employment 1 Like |

Bypassing of meter is a serious offence. You can be fined up to 100k. Moving forward try to manage your units and avoid bypassing. |

I'm bypassing. I'll never be caught. I'm smart about it. with the poor power supply and what postpaid customers suffer, those bastards don't deserve pity. Bypass if you can and if you're caught like OP, settle them and continue bypassing. They don't deserve pity. They're all wicked. |
