According to Titus, the costly error happened when he mistakenly keyed in the wrong amount during the purchase process. The entire sum was successfully deducted and deposited into Kenya Power’s account, but no tokens were generated or sent to his meter.
He revealed that despite making several visits to Kenya Power offices, no concrete action has been taken to resolve the issue. “I have gone to their main offices several times, but nothing has been done. They haven’t refunded my money or given me the tokens,” he said.
The incident has since sparked mixed reactions online, with many sympathizing with Titus and urging Kenya Power to act swiftly. Others, however, questioned how such a large transaction could occur “by mistake” without prior verification prompts.
As of now, Kenya Power has not issued an official response to the claims, but the case has once again highlighted growing concerns over the company’s customer service and the challenges faced by consumers seeking refunds for erroneous payments.
