The Management of the Abuja Distribution Company (DISCO) of PHCN on Monday says it has introduced mobile recharge of the Prepayment Metres.
Mr Yahaya Komo, the Principal Manager, Procurement, Abuja DISCO, made this known in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria in Abuja.
“There are some problems faced by customers of PHCN using credit cards to recharge their prepayment metres.
“Administrative problems arise due to non-availability of the cards,’’ he said.
Komo listed Otis Carpets, Wuse 2, British village, Wuse 2, and Airport/Lugbe Office of PHCN as points in Abuja city for customers to recharge their metres.
He said that customers in Mararaba and Nyanya should buy credits at Nyanaya Area `A’ Extension, Karu PHCN Service Centre, Jikwoyi/Orozo PHCN Office, Aso Fada and Nyanaya Power Plaza.
He stressed that the vending and use of cell phone to recharge prepayment metres had no limitation on the amount of money a customer could recharge as against the use of credit cards.
“With this mobile phone system, customers can recharge from any part of the country as done in the U. S. Britain or Canada.’’
Komo assured customers that the challenge of reloading credits would be eliminated by this new measure. (NAN) Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

Let us have uninterrupted power supply before u talk of mobile payment
ReplyDeleteYou only said ppl can recharge with their mobile phone without telling us how that will be done.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry and it is sympathetic and not course that we cannot develop with all these fire brigade approaches. Please before we keep measures up with developed nations we should first get certain whole lot in place and keep aside this our speed race without direction and focus.
ReplyDeleteTo PHCN of Nigerian: Without providing light, u still go ahead and charge customers exorbitantly without consider what they actually consume for the month. You now issue bill of particular month at the mid of the month. Try to satisfy your customer first before you start talking of how to get more from them. You need to care for you properties like transformer, poles & cable wires that they are in good condition because it is your responsibility not the Government nor the Customer either. You only care to collect money from people without render quality services to them.
ReplyDeletel only have l question for phcn and dat is the five hundred naira charge for meter maintainance, where does the maintainance take place. Is it at the phcn office or where the meter is installed, if not it is pure extortion. The vat has gone up to 12.89 per unit. Imitationis killing dis country.
