Procedure to reverse KPLC tokens

Method 1: Contacting KPLC via social media

Once you realize that you simply entered the wrong account number, go to Facebook, or perhaps Twitter to contact customer care (details below).

You will be required to share the transaction details with them and also the right meter number you intend to purchase tokens for.

Kenya Power and Lighting representatives will then forward the information to the revenue office responsible for reversals.

Method 2: Visiting Kenya Power and Lighting offices

If you can’t access their social media platforms, you can opt to visit Kenya Power and Lighting custom care offices for a KPLC token refund.

You must carry your national identity card, the right meter number, and all the transaction details along with you. You may be required to fill out a relocation form.

Method 3: Reversing Kenya Power and Lighting tokens via calling customer care

Suppose you don’t know the location of Huduma Center or Kenya Power and Lighting offices near your place and you don’t have access to social media. In that case, you can choose to call their customer care directly for reversal. It is the fastest method to get your tokens refunded.

How long will Kenya Power tokens reversal take?

Once your details are forwarded to the revenue office, it’ll take approximately three working days to have your tokens refunded.

For this reason, it’s advisable to buy other tokens as you wait for the reversal. Once the reversal is completed, you’ll receive the units’ codes via SMS.
