From 1356 to 1310 units. not worth much, of course, very small. Apparently because the discount is only applied on excess usage compared to the month prior, and the month prior of course was April and super hot. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rumak Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 My mor doo (‘clairvoyant") told me about the discount in March. I went on vacation in April so my electric bill was low low low. Nice big discount this month ???? . Thanks to this thread I now know why ........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mutt Daeng Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 (edited) For me, May consumption is 7 units less than April, so I guess no discount. We have low consumption anyway as you can see. Edited May 26, 2021 by Mutt Daeng correction 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just noticed that in March my bill only increased by 26.12 baht compared to Feb, but we consumed 125 more units, so it seems that some "discount" has been applied to March's bill.

Do you still have the bills? Any discount will be detailed there. My understanding is that it's the April bill that's the baseline but others have reported various discounts that don't seem to be country wide. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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? Or lower the kilowatt hour rate 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something has gone awry with your attachments ???? Yes, others have reported "mysterious" discounts, but the official roolz have the April consumption as the baseline with any discount made to consumption above that. Unless you are a very small user of electricity (<150 units). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAS21 Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Our last two months bills are for exactly the same amount. This months usage was 494kWhrs A few months ago we changed two of our Air Con units to Daikin FKTM ... they seem to use far less electric and at least one of them runs most of the day and night. Also have a PHEV and last month it used about 80units. ... . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You used 515 units and were billed for 497. Because you were over 500 units used you got a discount of 50% of the difference between June and April. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Triangle Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 We got our June bill yesterday, paid the same for 3 months ???? April used 422 units, 1726.53 Baht May used 460 units 1726.53 Baht June used 476 units 1726.53 Baht Thanks for the heads up about the 500 unit cut off Crossy ???? Not quite sure how I'm gonna adjust to lowering my usage, I've gotten used to a cool bedroom whenever I want it ???? Only kidding, I can afford my leccy bill whatever it is, just refreshing to have a bargain now & again. ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
