Has anybody got any idea why we are having so many power cuts, is it the union switching it off, are they conserving the fuel so that New Year celebrations can go ahead without interruption, surely they can't be doing repairs in the middle of the night, so why are we getting cuts almost every day.
I still can't get my head around the fact that big hotels and government offices can run up huge bills without penalty yet domestic customers have the supply cut off if they don't pay for two months, crazy situation. !!!!

Doom and gloom! Makes good reading though!

The continuance of supply is so much better than 10 years ago so stop moaning for gods sake! No wonder the Aussies call us winging poms!

Actually I have been here 10 years and yes we lots then but normally just a short while this week Friday 12 hours Sat 9 hours and today 7 time to throw the food out of the freezer I think and who is going to pay for that? ME. Since the price increases the cuts have got worse.

Five years ago we had power cuts for many hours every day while work was being carried out by Kibtek, we were told then that cuts would be a thing of the past.

if you remember 4yrs ago the government that imported the new turbines was giving us promises of NO MORE POWER CUTS a thing of the past
It is if you live near a government official or army camp Guzelyet dont get as many as most of the power station workers live there
Its the same old game who you live near or who you know
I went to the bank today and my letter off security has to be upt so i think we are in for big rises next yr mind you if you are Cypriot there are no rises for them
How lovely it is to invest and try to carry out a law biding CO here think i will join the illegals and stick me fingers upto them think the fast show was based on this country
