Been trying to get leccy since yesterday, but all the local paypoint machines arn't working, I'm down to under a pound in emergency leccy, :mad:

  • Hi it might be worth calling your elec company and explaining the situation they may be able to send an engineer out to put emergency credit on your meter until the paypoints are up and working again! Good luck
  • Hi, if you have access to internet + debit card and are supplied by British Gas you can ask for a free modem to "top up @ home".
    Only other way is to call your supplier and they will tell you nearest pay point or payzone or ask for emergency call out ( which will probably cost you )
