It happened again July 15 and 16th. 0ver night. Got an phone apology from We Energies. they said it was a fuse. took all night to fix.As you can imagine I am not happy. Time and sleep lost.
Took almost all day. The last gal I called got the correct location. I gave others the wrong location/address address and they insisted that a repair person came. There was none until the last gal I spoke with gave the repair person the correct location. I lost a little food due to melting as it was HOT !!!. The last gal I spoke to and the repair person did a good job.
