    Default Electricity got Cut Off

    I'm so sick of EDF. Last year I didn't get any bills for 6 months because they spelled my name wrong. They cut me off in the middle of January (which I thought was illegal here, cause of the cold).

    Now I woke up to no leccy AGAIN! They sent me a bill dated the 27th January, it arrived on the 31st, and 5 days later they cut me off. WTF? Gimme a fucking chance!! Even if I'd sent a cheque by post on the 1st they wouldn't have gotten it yet so why did they cut me off already?! And on the weekend?!!

    Argh! I can't even charge my fucking phone

    Ugh that sucks! Sorry to hear that hun, do you have a friend you can crash with until your stuff gets turned back on? Or maybe even a cheap motel is better then nothing, you don't want to freeze!

    Damn, if I didn't get a bill for 6 months, I'd call just to make sure...don't want that crap adding up.

    That really sucks though. I didn't think they could turn the electricity off either, but maybe it's the gas??

    Can you make a partial payment?

    I know though, that usually once it's turned off, you have to pay the entire bill.

    Maybe call and just see if you can work with them. Set up some sort of payment plan...it doesn't hurt to at least ask/try.

    I hope everything works out.

    Wow..that's retarded!! I'd definitely look into the legality of the situation with them cutting it off and consider contact consumer rights....
    I take cash, debit or credit. I just don't take shit.

    Even if you don't get a bill in the mail you are still responsible for paying it. In this day and age there are multiple ways of figuring out how much you owe without getting a paper bill.

    That said they should not have cut you off last year without at least putting a notice on your front door. Where I am they tape a notice to your front door or have a notice that hangs on your knob 5 days before they cut you off.
