We had some power dipps last night just before bed but that was all. We're in Kingsway.

The power has been off since 11.30 last night however it's just come back on (fingers crossed). Looks like there is still work going on at the substation at the top of Kingsway so hopefully they've sorted the problem out. It was a bit of a struggle getting ready this morning by candle light but not without its humorous side - seeing my daughters' faces when they realised they couldn't use their hair straighteners was quite funny.

We had no power from about 5.30 Thursday until 1.45 Friday afternoon at the bottom of Musley Hill. When I rang EDF they told me about 196 homes were affected and it was an 'underground' fault.

If it helps any of you, I've read on the internet that during Normal Weather ( "during Normal Weather" )- "If we fail and you make a valid claim within three months of the date the supply is restored, we will arrange for you to receive £50 if you are a domestic consumer or £100 if you are a business consumer. You will also receive a further £25 for each additional 12 hours you are without supply." Russell

Yes, EDF sent me a form to fill in, promising to refund me.
