ComputerGuy Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 Hearsay tells us that most of the budget money goes to line the pockets of the senior officials, leaving very little for service and installations. But they have been sued and lost, and when I sent a photo of the decaying pole outside my house, a replacement pole was being installed two days later. (I also had a bilingual friend who has lived here all his life do the dirty work of telling them about it, in what I would call "no uncertain terms".

If one person calls maybe it is a problem with the wiring in his house. If 50 people call, they know the problem is theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of us assume someone else will do that. CFE will also issue a claim # at the time of the report to reference for future use if required.

It should not take 50 to phone. It is difficult to get used to such low standards of service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then when "things" became more organized the board stopped Juan. My guess is that a significant amount of the disruption at Lakeside is similar, The CFE prefer to continually come up and swing the old fuse back in place, rather than replace with a new unit As said most likely it is not the fuse which is bad, but hanging telephonewires or trees over the main wires. The same happened to our neighborhood where a fuse popped out three times a week. They never changed it. But it got fixed by clearing all the main wires of trees and telephone wires which were making a shorts and popping out those fuses. In the racquetclub I saw several places where trees and telephonecables are interfering with the electricity wires and most likely causing those poweroutages. If you want to get it fixed, show those points to the CFE people or to the board of the RC. Otherwise it will never be fixed and the outages will continue forever.
