Power outages are coming. The CFE warned about massive cuts in April. Heatwaves are on the way, and air conditioning systems might overload the power grid. So, be prepared for outages.
Some people will be affected more than others. If you owe money, paid late, or tampered with your meter, you might lose power. These groups are at risk:
- Those with unpaid debts
- Late payers
- People who cheat on their meters
- Those with billing issues
Only people who didn’t pay their electricity bills in April will face outages. Check your bill carefully to avoid late payments. If you don’t pay, the CFE gives you 30 days to settle your debt.
Not paying on time has consequences. The CFE can cut off your power immediately. If you’re caught cheating, you could face 3 to 10 years in prison and fines equivalent to 1000 days of salary.
If your power is cut, sort out the issue and find out why. If you didn’t pay, catch up on your bill and ask for reconnection – it’ll cost extra. But if you’re up to date and think it’s a mistake, contact the CFE to fix it.
To avoid outages in April, pay your bills on time and check your consumption. About 11% of electricity is lost due to theft and cheating. Using devices like “diablitos” is a serious offense and can lead to sanctions.
The CFE is warning of massive cuts in April for those who don’t comply. Paying your electricity bills on time is crucial to avoid problems and ensure continuous power supply. Stay on top of your payments to avoid trouble.
