Pesco’s friendly steps
The Board of Directors of Peshawar Electric Supply Corporation (Pesco) have approved the suggestion of printing the facsimiles of the reading of electricity meters on consumers’ monthly bills. This is a consumer-friendly action for which Pesco authorities should be appreciated.
Pesco authorities need to take another measure which will almost put an end to complaints of over-billing. The correction of bills by the relevant authority will become an easy process.
The current practice is that when you complain of over-billing. The authorities stress that consumers pay their bills now and in future bills of small amount showing little consumption would be issued. Further consumer-friendly steps should be taken immediately.
