The little details in your bill make a huge difference.
You can’t register for a Meralco Online account if you are using an electric bill that is beyond two months old. If you can’t proceed with the details in your latest bill, kindly use the requested information from the previous month’s bill.
It’s also possible that you have encoded a comma in the kWh field that only accepts numbers. You may also check if the kWh and the bill date match. If they don’t, it could be the reason why the Meralco Online account registration is not pushing through.
Kindly make sure as well that you selected “I already have a Meralco bill” instead of “I haven’t received my first Meralco bill” or vice versa during the registration process.
Here are the possible reasons why you cannot register:
- You are using an old bill. Meralco Online will only accept details found on any of your bills from the past 2 months. If you are using the details from your latest bill received within the past 3 days and still cannot proceed, try using the details from your previous month’s bill.
- You placed a comma in the kWh field. The kWh field only accepts numbers.
- Your kWh and bill date do not match. Make sure to get the correct details from any bills from the past 2 months.
- You accidentally selected the “I haven’t received my first Meralco bill” instead of “I already have a Meralco bill”, or vice versa. Make sure to click the correct button.
Check the nature of your Service ID Number.
You can’t register using your Service ID Number (SIN) maybe because it is not active or is pending for termination. It’s also possible that it is associated to two (2) Meralco Online accounts. You may un-enroll the number by contacting our 24/7 hotline at 16211 for residential customers of 16210 for business customers. This request can also be coursed through Meralco Online’s Contact Us page.
Other reasons why you can’t register using the SIN is if it’s for a prepaid electricity account or if it is under a residential customer and switcher. For the latter case, the landlord or property lessor must request the removal of the former lessee’s Meralco Online account before the new lessee can create an account using the same SIN.
For Service ID Numbers that fall under a corporate account, you may keep in touch with the Relationship Manager to request registration to Meralco Online.
Here are the possible reasons why you can’t register:
- Your Service ID Number (SIN) is not active or is pending termination.
- Your Service ID Number (SIN) is already associated to two (2) Meralco Online Accounts, the maximum allowed by our system. You may un-enroll the SIN from those accounts by reaching Meralco through the Contact Us of Meralco Online, or calling us at 16211 for residential or 16210 for business customers.
- Your Service ID Number (SIN) is for a Prepaid electricity account (KLoad).
- Your Service ID Number (SIN) is under a Corporate account. For Corporate accounts, you may get in touch with your Relationship Manager to request for enrollment to Meralco Online.
