What The Tool Does?

A PESCO bill is the monthly electricity invoice issued by the Peshawar Electric Supply Company to over 2.6 million homes and businesses across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Many people still call it a WAPDA bill, since PESCO is one of the distribution companies that spun off from WAPDA. The hard copy is supposed to arrive by post a week or so before the due date, but it often shows up late, gets misplaced, or never reaches the right door at all. When that happens, you need a fast way to access a duplicate bill so you can pay on time and avoid the late payment surcharge.

Our PESCO online bill check tool fills that gap. We connect directly to the official PITC (Power Information Technology Company) portal that PESCO uses, and return the exact same duplicate bill in seconds. You can use it to:

  • View your latest bill, including the amount due, the payable amount after due date, and the detailed charges
  • Download a PDF copy for your records
  • Print a hard copy for over-the-counter payment at any bank
  • Check the past 12 months of bills and verify whether earlier bills were paid

We do not modify any data. The duplicate bill you see is identical to the one PESCO would hand you in person.

How to Check Your PESCO Bill Online

Checking your bill takes about ten seconds. Three short steps:

Step 1: Find your reference number or consumer ID

Both appear at the top of any previous PESCO bill. The reference number is 14 digits long and contains your sub-division and account code. The customer ID is shorter, 10 digits. If you do not have a paper copy handy, check old SMS alerts from PESCO or your previous bank payment receipts.

Step 2: Enter the number above

Type the 14-digit reference number into the bill checker with no spaces or dashes. If you only have your customer ID, enter that instead.

Step 3: Click ‘‘Check Bill’’ and download your copy

The system fetches your latest bill from PITC and displays it on screen. From there, press Ctrl+P (or the print menu on mobile) to either print a hard copy or save as PDF. This PESCO web bill is valid for payment at any bank, JazzCash agent, or online banking app.

If you receive a ‘‘Bill Not Found’’ message, double-check the number for typos. If the bill for the current month has not yet been generated by PESCO, the system will display your most recent prior bill instead.

Where to Find Your Reference Number and Customer ID

The reference number is printed at the top left of your printed PESCO bill, usually right above the customer ID. Both numbers stay the same from month to month unless your meter or account changes. If you have lost every paper copy, you can also:

  • Check SMS alerts on the mobile number registered with PESCO
  • Review past JazzCash, EasyPaisa, or bank app payment history
  • Visit your nearest PESCO sub-division office with your CNIC

Note: there is no official way to check your GEPCO bill by CNIC, meter number, or name. You need the reference number or customer ID.

Features

Our PESCO bill check is built around speed, accuracy, and zero friction. Here is what is included.

  • Instant duplicate bill: Every bill loads from the official PITC system in seconds. Same data, same format, same legitimacy as the hard copy. Often called the PESCO e-bill or d-bill, both terms mean the same thing.
  • PESCO bill download as PDF: Save your bill to your phone or laptop, attach to email, or share with family. The PDF is identical to the printed bill.
  • Old bill history: Access bills from the previous 12 months for record-keeping, tenant disputes, or verifying past payments. Useful when checking if a previous bill was paid or not.
  • PESCO bill calculator: Estimate your bill based on units consumed, slab rate, and current PESCO tariff. Helpful for budgeting before the official bill arrives.
  • View bill from anywhere: Access your bill from home, work, or while travelling. The bill is the same whether you check from Peshawar or Abbottabad.
  • Works on any device: Optimised for mobile, tablet, and desktop. Whether you are checking from a workshop in Mardan on mobile data or at home in Swat on Wi-Fi, the tool loads fast.
  • No login required: No registration, no email, no password. Enter your reference number and get your bill.

Benefits

Most PESCO consumers receive their paper bill only days before it is due, leaving little time to plan payment. Our online tool gives you back that time.

  • Pay on time, avoid the surcharge: Get your bill 7 to 10 days earlier than the courier delivers it. Pay before the due date and skip the late payment surcharge.
  • Skip the queue: No more standing in line at the bank to ask for a bill copy. Download yours in seconds from home.
  • Verify payment status: Cross-check whether you (or a tenant) actually paid last month’s bill using the payment history printed on your latest copy.
  • Plan your budget: With the PESCO bill calculator and visibility into your past three months of bills, you can spot usage spikes early and adjust before slab rates push you into a higher bracket.
  • Free, every month: No paid plan, no premium tier. Use the tool as often as you like.

Understanding Your PESCO Bill

Your PESCO bill is more than just one line and a total. Several charges and abbreviations show up every month, and understanding each helps you read your bill correctly.

  • Reference number: A 14-digit code printed at the top left. This is your primary lookup ID for any PESCO online bill check.
  • Customer ID: A 10-digit account identifier printed below the reference number. An alternative way to look up your account.
  • FPA (Fuel Price Adjustment): A charge that reflects the changing fuel cost of power generation. Set by NEPRA monthly. When global fuel prices rise, FPA rises too, even if your usage stays the same.
  • FC Surcharge: Financing Cost Surcharge, a per-unit charge of around 43 paisa that supports debt servicing for power-sector projects.
  • GST: An 18% general sales tax applied to your electricity charges.
  • Electricity Duty: A provincial tax set at 1.5% of your cost of electricity.
  • QTR Tariff Adjustment and DMC: Two charges that usually appear together. QTR is the Quarterly Tariff Adjustment, which reconciles the gap between approved and actual generation costs each quarter. DMC is the Distribution Margin Charge, PESCO’s fee for maintaining the network.
  • Income Tax: Charged on commercial users and on domestic users who consume 1,000 units or more in a billing month. Collected by PESCO on behalf of the Federal Board of Revenue.
  • TR Surcharge: Tariff Rationalization Surcharge for industrial users, reflecting the gap between NEPRA-set tariffs and Government of Pakistan tariffs.
  • Deferred Amount: An amount that has been parked due to a dispute, typically a court case between the consumer and PESCO. It stays in deferred status until the matter is resolved and is not part of your immediately payable amount.
  • TV Fee: A flat Rs. 35 charge to fund Pakistan Television Corporation. Included on most domestic bills.
  • Slab rate: Your per-unit cost rises in steps as you consume more. Staying under 200 units a month qualifies you for the protected (lifeline) tariff with significantly lower rates.
  • L.P. Surcharge: Late Payment Surcharge applied automatically if you pay after the due date.
  • Arrears: Unpaid amounts carried forward from previous months. If your bill shows arrears, those are still owed.

How to Pay Your PESCO Bill Online?

Once you have your duplicate bill, paying is just as fast. The two pieces of information you need are your 14-digit reference number and the amount due. Any of these channels will work.

  • JazzCash and EasyPaisa: Open the app, tap Utilities → Electricity → PESCO, enter your reference number, and confirm the amount.
  • HBL Mobile App: Bill Payments → Utility → Electricity → PESCO. Enter your reference number and pay from your account.
  • UBL Digital App: Bill Payments → Electricity → PESCO. Add your reference number once and the app remembers it for future months.
  • Meezan, MCB, Bank Alfalah, NBP, BOP: All major Pakistani banks support PESCO bill payment through their mobile apps. Look for the utility bills section.
  • NayaPay and SadaPay: Both fintech wallets support PESCO bill payment under their utility section.
  • Credit card: Most banks allow PESCO bill payment via credit card through their mobile apps. Select PESCO under utilities and pay directly to your card.
  • Bank counter: Walk into any HBL, UBL, MCB, Meezan, Allied, NBP, or Bank Alfalah branch with your printed bill. Cash or cheque both work.
  • ATM bill payment: Select banks allow PESCO bill payment from their ATMs using your debit card.
  • Post office: Pakistan Post counters across PESCO’s service area accept bill payments in cash.

To avoid the L.P. surcharge, pay at least two days before the due date printed on your bill.

PESCO Peak Hours

Knowing PESCO peak hours helps you reduce your bill if you have a TOU (Time of Use) meter. Higher rates apply during peak hours, so shifting heavy appliances (AC, iron, water pump) to off-peak windows can save you money over a billing cycle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are the most common questions PESCO consumers ask about checking, paying, and understanding their bills.

No. You need either the 14-digit reference number or the 10-digit customer ID. The PESCO and PITC portals do not support lookup by name, CNIC, or meter number, despite the volume of searches for these queries. If you have lost both numbers, check old SMS alerts, bank payment history, or visit your nearest sub-division office.

Enter your reference number in the tool above and click Check Bill. The duplicate loads in seconds. Press Ctrl+P or use the share/print menu on mobile to save as PDF or print.

Open your latest duplicate bill. The right side shows a payment history for the previous 12 months. If a month's amount appears as paid, you are clear. If it shows as arrears, it has not been paid.

When you generate the current bill, the billing history printed on the bottom half includes payments and units for the previous 12 months. For older records, the official PITC system retains data accessible with the same reference number.

Yes. JazzCash, EasyPaisa, NayaPay, SadaPay, and the mobile apps of every major Pakistani bank (HBL, UBL, MCB, Meezan, Bank Alfalah, NBP, BOP) all support PESCO bill payment.

FPA stands for Fuel Price Adjustment. It is a charge set by NEPRA each month that reflects the actual fuel cost of generating electricity. It can be positive or negative depending on global fuel prices.

A Deferred Amount is a bill amount that has been parked due to a dispute, often a court case between the consumer and PESCO. It stays in deferred status until the matter is resolved and is not part of your immediately payable amount.

Income Tax appears on PESCO bills for commercial users and for domestic users who consume 1,000 units or more in a billing month. It is collected by PESCO on behalf of the Federal Board of Revenue.
