Mr. Nguyen Quang Vinh - Deputy Director of Phu Tho Electricity said: "Electricity bills in May 2025 will be affected by the double impact of electricity price adjustment and increased output due to the heat wave. Therefore, when receiving and handling customer requests related to high electricity bills, electricity units need to separate the impact of each factor to respond fully to customers.

At the same time, promote propaganda and dissemination to employees to enhance their sense of responsibility in the work of recording indexes, checking indexes, reviewing and issuing invoices, receiving and resolving customer complaints about high electricity bills, not allowing errors to occur that affect the quality of customer service and the reputation of the Electricity industry.

The Electricity Company also directed units to arrange sufficient human resources to serve the inspection and careful review of the calculation of invoices before issuance, ensuring that there are no errors, paying special attention to customers with changes during the price change period such as: Changes in electricity usage purposes, customers with sub-meters, customers with total consolidation, wholesale customers before issuing invoices...

When receiving customer comments and suggestions related to electricity bills, the Electricity Company must promptly organize verification and fully explain and resolve them for customers within 24 hours of receiving the information. Incorrect or damaged invoices and payment receipts must be reviewed and corrected promptly. Proactively monitor and arrange sufficient personnel to reconcile, settle invoices, promptly cancel debts and notify intermediary payment partners to adjust the contract guarantee certificate in accordance with the adjustment of retail electricity prices and the collection situation of the partners, avoiding service interruptions that affect the quality of customer service.
