Unistar card meter
Ikeja Electric Plc has announced that it will no longer support the Unistar card meter and other outdated card meters under the Federal Government’s Meter Acquisition Fund (MAF) scheme.
In a public notice on Sunday, Ikeja Electric warned its customers that its technology might no longer support the Unistar card meter and any other outdated or obsolete card meters.
The utility provider stated that “all eligible Band A customers” affected will receive a complimentary meter replacement under the ongoing Federal Government/NERC Meter Acquisition Fund (MAF) scheme.
It noted that this initiative is to ensure continued access to electricity without estimated billing.
“We encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity, as meters not installed within 20 days may no longer be available,” the public notice read.
To prevent disruptions in service, Ikeja Electric urged customers to complete their SmartKYC registration within 48 hours, stating, “To avoid your connection being moved to direct supply due to incompatibility, please complete your SmartKYC registration within forty-eight hours.”
