Lanretoye: You are a dummy. In Edo, Meters can be moved. You just have to do transfer , like PVC. I am seeing that in Ikeja, the policy is different. Even if you can’t, there is always back door! |

I have had this feeling that someone somewhere is trying to scam the whole community in the name of community CDA. The amount was first put at #60,000 then moved to #80,000 for late payment. From 80k to 150k then upward to #285k. I swear not to pay. We encourage so much scam in Nigeria. All of the community should go to NEPA and seek clarification. wirinet: |

Mynd44:Wow, I didn't know this was possible. So if you relocate to another location to live, you can take the prepaid meter with you to the new house, connect and continue using it there? If yes, how much is it now? |

Trendy247: It can be moved but NEPA doesn't like it and would probably confiscate it if you install it . It also works on your band..so moving it to Band A area would trigger an alert from their end |
Re: Tenants On One Prepaid Meter, How Do You Share Electrity Bills? by HenryWilliams(m): 11:50am On Oct 03 |
wirinet: No. The meter is owned by the DISCOs, like all other electrical components purchased by communities or individuals.. It's a useless ACT copied from the derelict era of NEPA and PHCN 1 Like |

Re: Tenants On One Prepaid Meter, How Do You Share Electrity Bills? by FireUpNow(m): 12:00pm On Oct 03 |
wirinet: Good question. It's legally yours but cannot be moved from one location to another. You can only use it in the location you registered it. The process is very annoying to be honest after installation and commissioning. |

We are 4 in my compound and before we contribute 3k every month until one werey among us bought ac, washing machine and other using electric cooker. Before these two people enter we've been enjoy 5k for a month not until they enter We had a meeting to increase the contribution to 5k, ignorant me I accept not knowing he had planned to acquire ac and other high consuming applicanes. The 5k × 4=20k no reach 2weeks again, so he organized another meeting that we should be paying it 5k twice in a month, that's when I boyscout the meeting and told them they should count me out I pay them 5k every 1st or second of the month, whether it's enough or not na their business and I've maintained that rules for over 7months now till I go move to my own house 2 Likes |

Mynd44: Discos are only able to install meters in the name of the owners of the property therefore it is not possible to retrieve an existing meter from a property and move it to another property. Tenants sharing meters can do any of the following options: - Apply to separate meters and pay for another meter which the landlord can be notified so he/she pays for the said meter or the tenant pays and the amount is deducted from the rent subject to the tenants and landlord or their agents agreeing to this arrangement - Best but more expensive option - Install check meters for each apartment connected to the said prepaid meter and so that upon the exhaustion of the tokens loaded, each tenant knows what units/kWh they have used from the initial tokens loaded and then reimburses the purse accordingly when the tokens are exhausted. Least preferred but cheaper option. |

Re: Tenants On One Prepaid Meter, How Do You Share Electrity Bills? by idahme(m): 12:45pm On Oct 03 |
Mynd44: Are you sure if you sure if you disconnect a meter you can use it elsewhere? I don't think. Meter is something that should be provided by the landlord |
