The case, which occurred in Santo Domingo, was documented in official invoices and in videos that show a contradiction between what the meter read and what the company decided to charge.\n\nAccording to the bills, the supposed consumption was 711 kilowatt hours each time. However, in the section &#8220;data from your meter reading&#8221; appears a previous reading of 0, a current reading of 13 and a multiplier of 1, which is equivalent to only 13 kWh.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"FACTURA EL\u00c9CTRICA POR LAS NUBES\" width=\"1240\" height=\"698\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/peTKzl4Sq5Y?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\nJos\u00e9 Hoepelman himself verified it. He recorded a video showing that the meter installed by the company registers barely 13 kWh accumulated. And he also recorded the interior of the premises: gray walls, unfinished, without furniture, without equipment, without signs of use. In other words, they billed him as if the place had been in constant operation, when in reality it remained closed and empty.\n\nYou can also read: <a href=\"https:\/\/ab.deultimominuto.net\/nacionales\/edesur-concentra-un-tercio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Edesur concentrates a third of the claims<\/a>\n\nThe payment timeline confirms the inconsistency: in February 2025, RD$42 was paid for a fixed charge, in March RD$108 for 11 kWh, and in April RD$54 for just 2 kWh. After that minimal history, two consecutive bills exceeding RD$9,430 arrived.\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hoepelman presented three claims to <a href=\"https:\/\/ab.deultimominuto.net\/nacionales\/edesur-desarrolla-este-jueves-labor-de-adecuacion-de-subestacion-del-kilometro-10-%c2%bd-de-la-autopista-duarte\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/ab.deultimominuto.net\/nacionales\/edesur-desarrolla-este-jueves-labor-de-adecuacion-de-subestacion-del-kilometro-10-%c2%bd-de-la-autopista-duarte\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Edesur<\/a>. Two have already been answered: one was declared valid and the other invalid, although both invoices were the same in amount and consumption. The third is still awaiting a decision. \u201cHow can it be that two bills with the same consumption have different outcomes?\u201d, he questioned.<\/h6>\n\n\nFor Hoepelman, the conclusion is clear: distributors manipulate billing. The company does not admit it, but the contradiction between the meter and the bill is there, in black and white.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A client of Edesur reported that an empty premises, still in gray structure and without any connected appliances, received in May and July 2025 two invoices of more than RD$9,430 each.
