No discount on our bill but is much less than yours. It is exact same amount of usage and for the amount to be paid on the bill.

It was a little confusing since the receipt for the online payment done for last month attached to the bill and the new bill were exactly the same.

Got mine yesterday.

Consumption 304 , paid for 238  !!

The 238 being exactly as my April bin as stated in another thread .

What are you not using?  LOL.

For me, my last bill was 479 units, dropped to 417 to match last month.

PC @ 200watts for 5 hours per day = 30 units/month.

AC @ 1500 watts for 2 hours per day = 90 units/month

Fridge freezer @ 100 watts for 24 hours per day = 72 units/month

There's almost 200 units already without fans, showers, TV, lights.

An AC takes at least 1kW/hour.so 12 hours x 30 days = 360 units.

Surprisingly, our use of A/C seems to have very little influence on our electric bill. The man comes around on the 19th, so our bill covers the period of the 20th of the month until the 19th of the next month and these are the numbers for the last four months:

January-February, zero A/C use, consumption 299 units

February-March, 7 hours A/C use, consumption 362 units

March-April, 111 hours A/C use, consumption 367 units

April-May, 103 hours A/C use, consumption 372 units

 

Our bill goes up in the hot season, but it seems to be more about our fridge and freezer working harder than out A/C usage.

You should close the doors and windows when all your aircons are running full speed or are you cooling down the swimming pool area too?

Not in our house it doesn’t ????

You are lucky. I just checked on my power consumption meter, and each one of my four recently cleaned Mitsubishi 12000 BTU Mr Slims (non-inverter) , takes well over 1500 watts on automatic setting. Will have to do further investigation!

While on the subject of PEA, their Smart App seems to be up the Swannee. 

I have used it successfully for over 6 months, easy to pay the bill via Banking. This week I opened it up and it said there was an upgrade, so I clicked YES. Got one of two messages, either my phone is not compatible (Huawei on AIS) or not available in my country, (I am in Thailand).

Went to local PEA office where a techie first uninstalled the app, then could not find it in Google Play Store. Tried to install on a 'blank' Samsung with the same results.

A student in the office then came to tell me that the upgrade is no good and will be sorted in the coming weeks. I asked if this meant that no-one in Thailand can use the app, to which I got a giggle.

Has this happened to any members on here?

Just got our bill.

No discount at all

Guess I am not a Thai Visa Mod. ????

 

Looks like this month we used less units than last month.

A strange way to calculate discounts.

 

Would it not be easier and fairer to just knock a % off the total?
