The Lahore Electric Supply Company (LESCO) has embraced digitalization by introducing an online platform that allows its customers to access their electricity bills easily. This move is part of LESCO’s ongoing efforts to enhance customer service and make bill retrieval more convenient for the over 4.5 million customers it serves across Punjab, including Lahore, Sheikhupura, Kasur, Okara, and Nankana Sahib.
Why Go Online?
Traditionally, LESCO has delivered printed copies of electricity bills directly to customers’ doorsteps each month. However, with the advancement of technology and the growing demand for digital services, LESCO has now made it possible for customers to access their bills online. This online service not only offers greater convenience but also ensures that customers can retrieve their bills anytime and from anywhere, without waiting for physical delivery.
Steps to Download Your LESCO Bill Online
To download your LESCO bill online for August 2024 or any subsequent month, follow these simple steps:
- Visit the Official LESCO Website: Open your preferred web browser and go to the official LESCO website.
- Find the Bill Retrieval Section: On the homepage, look for the section dedicated to bill retrieval, usually labeled as “Duplicate Bill” or “Download Bill.”
- Enter Your Reference Number: You will be prompted to enter your reference number, which is a specific code associated with your electricity connection. This reference number is a combination of your batch number, sub-division number, reference number, and R or U code. You can find this information on a previous bill.
- Alternatively, Enter Your Customer ID: If you prefer, you can also retrieve your bill by entering your Customer ID. This ID is available on the hardcopy of your previous bills and serves as another way to access your account information online.
- View and Download Your Bill: Once you’ve entered the required details, click the “Submit” or “View Bill” button. Your bill for August 2024 will be displayed on the screen. You can then download the bill in PDF format for printing or save it for your records.
