Your electricity supply
We have enough power for all our customers! So, unless there are any unexpected outages outside of our control, we will still be able to supply electricity to your home.
Estimate meter readings
We are not able to visit your property to read meters at this time. If you have a smart meter, we are usually able to read your meter remotely and bill you based on an actual read (provided there is good network coverage). If you do not have a smart meter, we will bill you based on an estimate. If you do receive an estimated bill, any discrepancy between your last actual read and your next actual read would be balanced out.

Due to the current situation, there may be a delay in receiving your bills by post. If you have an email address, the fastest way to receive your bills is to register for My Account at www.greypowerelectricity.co.nz... You will need your Account Number and email address.

Take care and we will be in touch again soon.Keep smiling,

Latest scams to look out for 👀
Neighbourly hopes to keep you safe by keeping you informed of the latest scams circulating. This week, we are sharing two common text message scams:
NZTA / Waka Kotahi scam:
- The scam is a text message saying it's from New Zealand Transport Agency Waka Kotahi, and it encourages the recipient to pay an overdue road toll by visiting a fake website, threatening to take the matter to court within 15 days if they don’t pay up.
- The aim is to trick people into giving away their personal details or pay them money.
- While it is not the first time toll payments have been utilised by scammers, the threat of court action could see more people fall victim.
- The sender will either be a unknown phone number or unknown email address.
Want to report one of these scams? Do so, on Netsafe
NZ Post scam:
- This scam arrives by test message and says it's from NZ Post.
- The premise is that delivery of your parcel was unsuccessful so in order to rearrange delivery. you must click on a link to give your correct address.
- The aim is to trick people into giving away their personal details or pay them money.
- NZ Post advises people not to click the link, but to report the message to the Department of Internal Affairs by forwarding it to 7726.
Think you may have fallen prey to a scam? Get in touch with Netsafe or contact your bank if it involved your bank details.
Remember, if you didn't expect the message and you are now asked to share personal details or money, then stop contact and seek advice elsewhere.
