Just bypass it and connect directly to the pole. The wire that comes from the pole to the meter call an electrician to remove it for you and join it with the one coming from your house then hide it at the back of the prepaid meter.

Then use the other wire (there are three that comes from the pole) to connect to the meter so that it would keep showing its beeping light should in case Nepa mistakenly enters your compound.

That way you'll have light and you won't have to bother about paying for it since they have refused to fix it for you. And the good thing here is that Nepa doesn't come to homes that use prepaid meter. Cos they know that if you don't recharge you won't have light. So it will take years before you're discovered.

I've been using my illegal connection for over two years and counting and no one has discovered me yet.
