    Yes i agree the vegetation grows quickly here but there is another way to think about this. The elec companys should set a system that people must keep trees and other greenery away from power lines. If they cause a short they should be fined or some penalty. Im sure that would cure alot of the problem.

    I don't know.
    So, if I'm being charged 12 pesos per kwh by the landlord that's a fair price, correct? Dang I wish they'd use some insulation and proper attic ventilation when they build stuff here, since I'm an "aircon wimp".

    It's a shame to pay for the expensive electricity for such bad service. In France, a rich and expensive country, electricity costs less. Where I live we have power cuts almost every day. NORECO is a company that only thinks to put in its pockets without any respect for consumers.

    Why would your landlord set the price for electricity? Just ask for the bill.

    Probably got a separate meter for the tenant!

    Right, but shouldn't the landlord just give the NORECO bill to the tenant? That's how my landlord does it. I would be suspicious if the meter number and readings weren't presented on an official receipt.
