to cut the power if the required amount is not paid within (10) days,
and it will not be restored in case of disconnection except by fulfilling all demands and paying
reconnection fees.
- If you have paid the (debts) listed in the current bill
three days or less before its issuance, you must visit us carrying the receipt
