Santo Domingo. – State-owned Power Companies (CDEEE) vice president Celso Marranzini today announced a review of the circuits which provide 24 hours of continuous electricity, after customers complained that the quality of the service in those networks has declined.
However the official noted that if what they want is to have a better circuit they must pay for it. H said they’ll review the circuits and establish who pays, because they cannot get power if they don’t.
Marranzini, who’s been at the post just 45 days said he’s confided the payments to the power plants and a better bill collection would reduce the deficit by as much as 20 million dollars monthly, from the current figure he placed at 60 million.
The official said the service could be improved by turning the user into a customer and change the way people are treated, admitting that CDEEE clients don’t feel that way and it must change.
Marranzini, interviewed in the television program Hoy Mismo, said a call center will be installed for customers to lodge complaints and consult the CDEEE services.

1- Lines would have to be restructure, posibly looking at underground cables with multiple outputs.
2-system would need to be computerized to the point that only those who don't pay light could be shut off, a meter to your house that can only be turned on with codes, and box with multiple coded meters to apartment cpmplex and more than residency
a) sanctions to whoever sabotage the codes
b) Continuing monitoring of boxes on individual house and and complexes
Problem will not be soved untill the appropiate investement is in place.
We all know this will solve the problem, but it never gets done, I wonder why..., ?????
jcl_67, I understand where you coming from with the "you don't pay your bill, but I think this new puppet already mentioned that a sector in the wealthy community is major part of the problem along with those who connect illegaly. Let's not forget that this man use to be the one that said many times that fixing the problem was simple, he is being in pwoer 45 days, let's give him to the rest of the year to see what's up, no worries if ther is not going to be nmuch electricity, we dominican are use to this.
Scout boys and girls in USA, we can teach you how to suvive in the wild.
