Director of Corporate Communications at the Jamaica Public Service Company, JPS, Winsome Callum, confirmed with Nationwide News this afternoon that almost $100,000 was returned to a Manchester resident who’d overpaid JPS on her light and power bill.
Eileen Powell called Cliff Hughes Online this morning, On Nationwide 90FM, saying she accidentally transferred at least $100,000 to JPS last month.
Ms. Powell says after more than one month the money was still not returned.
She says JPS had even started deducting charges from the money to go towards her next bill, which is not yet due.
Miss Callum who was then invited on the programme following Ms. Powell’s complaints promised to expedite the matter.
