In addition to using the Mpesa KPLC pay bill number to purchase electricity tokens, the E-bill can be used to check the KPLC bill over the phone or via e-mail.
The E-bill electronic querying system sends you an SMS with information about your KPLC account balance and the next due date for your electricity bill.
One could check the KPLC bill over the phone and receive the results via e-mail.
How to Check Your KPLC Bill Via Phone
- Make a new text message on your phone.
- As the message, enter the first part of your KPLC account number. For instance, 332211 for account number 332211-02.
- Send a text message to 95551.
- You will receive an SMS message with your electricity account information from KPLC’s E-bill system!
The SMS is charged at a rate of Ksh 5 higher than standard SMS rates.
The E-bill service is available for all Kenyan phone networks.
Confirm your information before sending the SMS to avoid sending multiple SMS at Ksh 5 above normal rates.
The E-bill does not replace the traditional KPLC bill delivery method. Your electricity bill will continue to be sent to you as usual – via your postal office address.
