MEPCO Helpline Number

MEPCO helpline is the official customer support contact for Multan Electric Power Company, used to report bill complaints, meter faults, power outages, and new connection queries across MEPCO’s South Punjab network. Whether you’re in Multan, Bahawalpur, Sahiwal, or Dera Ghazi Khan, you can reach a representative by phone, WhatsApp, or the online complaint portal.

Who Needs the MEPCO Helpline?

Any MEPCO consumer, domestic, commercial, or industrial, needs the helpline at some point: a sudden power outage, a billing dispute, a faulty meter, or a new connection query that the online portal can’t fully resolve.

Who Needs the MEPCO Helpline

You don’t need any account setup to call, just your reference number, consumer ID, or CNIC on hand so the representative can pull up your connection details quickly. The helpline covers the entire MEPCO service area across South Punjab, so the same numbers apply whether your connection is in Multan city or a smaller town under a regional operation circle.

What Is the MEPCO Helpline Number?

The main MEPCO helpline number is 0800-63726, a 24-hour service line covering bill complaints, meter issues, outages, and general consumer support across every MEPCO circle. Alongside this, MEPCO maintains regional office numbers and a national emergency short code for faster local response. Before calling about a billing issue, you can also use the Bill check option to review your current bill details and confirm the issue.

MEPCO Helpline Number by Circle (Multan, Bahawalpur, Sahiwal, DG Khan)

MEPCO divides its South Punjab network into regional operation circles, each with its own office and direct contact number for faster local response than the general helpline.

How Do You Contact MEPCO Helpline?

There are three practical ways to reach MEPCO support, depending on how urgent your issue is and whether you’d rather talk to someone or submit it in writing.

How Do You Contact MEPCO Helpline

Method 1: Call the MEPCO Helpline

  • Dial 0800-63726 from any phone, landline or mobile.
  • Select the relevant option from the automated menu (billing, meter, outage, new connection).
  • Keep your reference number or consumer ID ready when a representative picks up.

Why this matters: having your reference number on hand before the call saves time, since the representative pulls up your connection history using that number, not your name or address alone.

Method 2: Submit a Complaint via WhatsApp

  • Save 0307-7848566 as a contact.
  • Send a message describing your issue, along with your consumer ID or reference number.
  • Wait for a reply confirming your complaint has been logged.

This method works well when you can’t make a call, at night, during a meeting, or when the phone lines are busy after a widespread outage.

Method 3: Register a Complaint Through CCMS Online

  • Visit MEPCO’s Customer Complaint Management System (CCMS) portal.
  • Select your complaint category, billing, meter, voltage, or new connection.
  • Fill in your consumer details and submit.
  • Note the complaint tracking number you receive for follow-up.

Note: CCMS complaints are typically acknowledged within 24 hours, so if you need an immediate response to an active outage, calling the helpline directly is faster than submitting online.

MEPCO Helpline vs Other Contact Methods

MethodSpeedBest ForAvailability
Phone (0800-63726)ImmediateUrgent issues, outages, active emergencies24 hours
WhatsApp (0307-7848566)Minutes to hoursNon-urgent complaints, when calling isn’t convenientBusiness hours (varies)
CCMS Online PortalAcknowledged within 24 hoursBilling disputes, meter checks, formal complaint tracking24/7 submission
Circle Office NumberImmediate to same-dayLocal, area-specific issuesOffice hours

So, the 24-hour phone helpline is the best method for urgent issues like an active power outage or a suspected meter fault, while CCMS is better suited for billing disputes where you want a written record and a tracking number.

What Can You Report Through the MEPCO Helpline?

The MEPCO helpline handles a wide range of consumer issues, not just outages.

  • Billing disputes – an unusually high bill, incorrect meter reading, or wrong tariff category applied
  • Meter faults – a stopped, damaged, or suspiciously fast-running meter
  • Power outages – unscheduled outages, voltage fluctuations, or transformer issues
  • New connection queries – status updates on a pending application or demand notice
  • Load shedding schedule questions – confirming your area’s current outage schedule
  • Safety hazards – exposed wiring, damaged poles, or other electrical safety concerns near your property

If your issue involves immediate danger, like a live wire down or sparking equipment, call the helpline right away rather than submitting it through CCMS, since online complaints aren’t monitored in real time.

Tips for Getting Your MEPCO Complaint Resolved Faster

  • Keep your reference number and CNIC ready before calling. This is the first thing any representative asks for, and having it ready cuts the call time significantly.
  • Note the exact time and date of the issue. For outages or voltage problems, a specific timestamp helps MEPCO cross-reference the fault with their own system logs.
  • Use CCMS for anything you want documented. A phone complaint isn’t always logged with a trackable number, while CCMS gives you a reference to follow up with later.
  • Escalate to the circle office if the main helpline doesn’t resolve it. Regional offices sometimes move faster on local issues like a specific transformer fault or an area-wide outage.
  • Take a photo of a damaged meter or exposed wiring before reporting it. This speeds up the inspection process since the field team already knows what to expect.
  • Follow up within 48 hours if you haven’t heard back. Don’t assume silence means it’s being handled, quote your complaint number when you call again.
  • Report safety hazards immediately, don’t wait for a convenient time. A downed wire or sparking transformer is an emergency, not a routine complaint.
  • Save both the general helpline and your circle office number. During a widespread outage, the general line gets busy fast, and your local circle office may answer sooner.

A little preparation before you call saves a lot of back and forth once you’re actually on the line with a representative.

For urgent safety issues or active outages, calling directly is still faster than any online form.
