Electricity Bill Weird Tax

Featured Replies

i just got my electricity bill at at like 2.3baht per click but theres something called FT 0.6285 which adds 577baht to the bill

what might this be?

There was a topic recently talking about charges. I believe it is Fuel Tariff surcharge per unit (KWh). Others will correct me if I'm wrong. :o

mines in my mailbox now, I'll look at it when I get home and get back to you tomorrow

Yes, exactly the same as my FT = 0.6285 this month. It's an indexed charged for oil cost. And don't forget the 7% tax on top. Seems a good deal to me given gas costs at the fuel pump as the FT 10 months ago was 0.6611.

but i dont use oil?

or is it how they make electricity? i wouldnt know in my country we do 100% of it by water...

bill would be pretty decent for AC open 24hrs a day + computers.. would only be like 2.5k

or is it how they make electricity?

Yes. Either oil or coal seems to be the primary fuels for electricity generation here.

same same for me, but I was only taxed 189thb. Trying to reduce my footprint by shutting all off when I go to work and recently just got a new energy efficient refrigerator. Total bill has dropped 150thb.
