What to do about reimbursement for appliances in a power outage?
Most consumer complaints involving Celtins are precisely about the reimbursement for burned devices in cases of power outages.
Unfortunately, power outages are very frequent and when they happen, they damage and burn out several electronic devices, especially the more expensive ones, such as refrigerators and televisions.
In these cases, it is common for the consumer to contact Celtins with the aim of requesting compensation for the loss caused by the system failure.
But after all, do you know what your rights are in these cases and how to act?
According to article 22 of the Consumer Protection Code, energy distributors have the duty to provide adequate and safe services to consumers.
In cases where companies fail to comply with the rule, causing devices to burn out, for example, they are obliged to pay the consumer for the damage caused.
The consumer has a period of 90 days to make the payment request and the company must inspect the damaged equipment within ten days.
After the inspection, the energy distributor has another 15 days to inform the consumer of the results of the inspection.
After the inspection result, if the problem is confirmed, within 20 days, the company must repair, pay in cash or replace the burned-out device.
Therefore, if you have had any device damaged, try to contact Celtins through one of the channels provided in this article as soon as possible.
If your problem is not properly resolved, you can still file a complaint with PROCON or ANEEL. Don't waste time, seek your rights!
How to make a complaint to Procon
We hope that your situation with Celtins does not reach this point, but it is not uncommon for people to make complaints to PROCON about the service provided by energy distributors.
Unfortunately, in Brazil, companies still insist on disrespecting consumers' rights, and when this happens, there is no other way out than to seek out your rights.
PROCON is the acronym for Consumer Protection and Defense Program. It is a foundation created to solve problems between consumers and companies.
Therefore, if you have had any problems involving Celtins, filing a complaint with PROCON may be an alternative.
This foundation has a direct link with the Department of Justice, thus, it is a highly regarded institution within the Brazilian State, and is able to resolve the most diverse problems involving energy distributors.
It is important for you to know that PROCON is present in all Brazilian states, precisely to better meet the demands related to compliance with the standards of Consumer Protection Code.

What is the deadline for a power cut due to non-payment?
We know that Brazil is currently experiencing a difficult time. With an economic crisis that never ends and unemployment at an all-time high, people are facing financial difficulties.
As a result, it is not uncommon for there to be delays and even non-payment of some bills, such as the Celtins energy bill.
When this happens, it is common for consumers to be concerned about a possible power outage, something that is very likely to happen.
For this reason, it is important for you to know that there is no specific number of bills or days late in the law that would allow the suspension of the energy supply.
In this way, the energy distributor can even count the electricity of a consumer with just one overdue bill.
However, for this to actually occur, prior communication is required. of at least 15 days.
Therefore, if Celtins or any other energy company cuts off the electricity to a home or commercial establishment without prior notice, it will be obliged to pay compensation.
Even if the Account is in arrears, the obligation in this case is to provide prior notice.
