Usual challenges without a prepaid meter1. Unpredictable and uncontrolled electricity/water bills: When customers lackaccess to a prepaid meter, they’re unable to keep track of their usage and subsequent costs. As a result, they may be hit with unexpectedly large bills at the endof the month.2. Unreliability of data: Without a prepaid meter, customers’ monthly bill is based on an estimation of their usage. Oftentimes, these estimations can be unreliable and lead to customers being overcharged due to incorrect data collection.3. Difficulty to access: Whether due to geographical challenges or lack of financial resources, prepaid meters can be difficult for customers to access. This makes it difficult for customers to stay accurate in data tracking and properly manage their electricity/water bills.4.
