Does anyone know when the new electric bill will come out? I think everyone had a bill at the end of March just before the start of the new tariffs. Thanks

Had ours yesterday

When did you usually receive it?

I used to receive the bills for the following area around the dates stated

Catalkoy normally were the 2nd
Bellapais area 4th
Edremit and yesiltepe 15th
karsiyaka after 20th

Edremit and yesiltepe 15th.....so, the next bill will cover 6 weeks!!!! Lovely!

Ours was 30 April. Next one due 30 May. Esentepe area. No real change in the monthly costs (so far).

Did you normally receive your bill around the 30th?

I thought I had friends on sunday 31st March with all the text beeping to find out it was all my customers electrics but now as I did not receive any yesterday have they reverted back to their normal date of billing

Got ours today (Esentepe), apart from the bill on 31st March, they normally come around 2nd of month.

Got mine today same day as usual.

Got mine (Karaman) today.

Got mine today as well - sneaked under the 300 too!

Used to receive ours (in Karsiyaka) 16-18 each month, then this year 21 Feb, 21 and 31 Mch, and now today.

Yes I received them all yesterday, that will make the payment office very busy now at the beginning of the month!

Thanks for all the replies. Mine also came yesterday.

Mine was 167tl.

Download the app and pay on your phone. Much easier.

Ours was 463 tl which I think was fair. We had the heating on lots at the start of the month.

I thought you were able to switch to a standard rate after your first bill on the new system. Anybody got any idea on how to do so?

According to the leaflet, you can switch by completing an application form at the regional administration office. You may switch tariffs 3 times a year.

Thanks.

We might just stick to the 3 tier pricing. Try and put the washing machine / dishwasher on first thing in the morning or last thing at evening.

Hoping for the best and setting washing machine and dish washer to go on about 11.30 at night. Will wait and see what happens.

If it was only mine but with customers i like to see the money being handed over! I tried the bank once and people behind me did not appreciate I pay over 30 bills.

Be careful Sophie as Weekends & Holidays off peak is not until 24.00 (Midnight) until 7am

Of course all change again on 16th May- 15th October
Off Peak is 23.00 Weekdays and 02.00 AM - 9am Weekends & holidays
The attached chart may help

You can pay at any bank.

Thanks for that Amelia but as we haven't filled in any forms or registered, perhaps it doesn't apply in any case?

On subject of electricity cost. I don't know what we do wrong, if anything, but we have got ours down to 665tl this last month. It was over 1,000tl in the coldest months (and we were still cold) !!

Never go there. Usually pay at bank.

How the hell do you get through that much? We have managed to keep ours down to 244 units this month - are you on builder's electric? We are on Tariff 20. You did not have to sign-up for the new banded system - it is the default, you have to opt out if you don't want it.

We have switched over to energy efficient fridges, air-con and oven. Thinking of solar energy for the pool now, Three PVU to run pump during the day... no need to use batteries as we don't want it to run overnight.

Groucho, we are not on builders electricity and apart from solar panels for use in Summer its the only form of utility in the house, no gas or wood. We have got some new neighbours though and am a bit suspicious lately. !!!!!

Groucho how much is tariff 20 can’t see it on Kibtek website only goes up to 14.....

I am also on Tarrif 20,how many tarrifs is there?

Am interested in "Holidays". There always seems to be some discussion on when is a Bayram not a Bayram

Test it.... at night switch off at meter... if they go dark you have the answer

our first bill
we are on builders electric
413 for the month - we had heaters on at start of period
pool pump is solar
sounds reasonable ... I think

Tried to pay my bill today at both Koop Bank and Limassol Bank and they told me
that the Kibtek system is not currently communicating with banks so no payment can be made.

Good job I have until the end of the month to pay

I paid my bill on May 4th at Lapta Kalkinma Kooperatif Ltd,-the lowest I've had in the 2.5 years I've lived here, and just 100 yards from my home. Lucky me!!!
