Pay MEPCO Bill at a Bank Branch
Counter payment at a bank branch is the traditional method and still works perfectly if you prefer face-to-face transactions or don't have a smartphone.
What to Bring
- Your printed MEPCO bill (or your reference number written down)
- Cash in the exact amount or close to it
Process: Walk up to the cash counter, hand over your bill and payment. The cashier processes the payment and stamps your bill copy as "Paid." Keep this stamped copy for your records.
Accepted banks: All commercial banks in Pakistan accept MEPCO bill payments at their branches.
Pay MEPCO Bill at the Post Office
Pakistan Post offices accept MEPCO bill payments at their counters. This channel is particularly useful for senior citizens and those in areas with fewer bank branches.
Bring your bill and cash. The process is identical to bank counter payment — your bill gets stamped as paid and you keep a copy.
What Happens If You Pay After the Due Date?
Late payments are accepted, but a surcharge is added to your original bill amount. The surcharge rate is printed on your bill and depends on your tariff category.
| Original Bill | Typical Surcharge | Total to Pay |
|---|---|---|
| Rs. 2,000 | Rs. 100 | Rs. 2,100 |
| Rs. 5,000 | Rs. 200 | Rs. 5,200 |
| Rs. 10,000 | Rs. 2,000 | Rs. 12,000 |
Can't pay the full amount? Contact your nearest MEPCO Sub-Division office to request a due date extension (3–10 days, depending on authority) or an instalment plan. See our MEPCO Bill Extension Policy page for the full breakdown.
How to Confirm Your MEPCO Payment Was Received
After paying through any channel, wait 24 hours and then:
Check Your Bill Online
Come back to this page and enter your reference number in the bill checker.
Look for Paid Status
When your bill loads, check for a "Paid" stamp or a zero outstanding balance.
Contact MEPCO If Needed
If the bill still shows unpaid after 48 hours, contact MEPCO helpline 118 with your payment receipt.
MEPCO Bill Payment — Frequently Asked Questions
Can I pay my MEPCO bill without the physical bill?
Yes. You only need your 14-digit reference number. If you don't have it, check your previous bill, use your Customer ID, or retrieve it through the Roshan Pakistan app using your CNIC.
Is there a service fee for online MEPCO bill payment?
Most bank apps, JazzCash, and Easypaisa charge no fee for MEPCO bill payments. Some banks may apply a nominal processing fee — check with your specific bank.
Can I pay someone else's MEPCO bill?
Yes. You just need their 14-digit reference number. The payment method and process is identical — the system doesn't require you to be the account holder.
What if I paid the wrong MEPCO bill?
Contact MEPCO helpline 118 immediately with your payment receipt. Do not delay — MEPCO can trace and redirect the payment if reported early.
My payment went through but MEPCO still shows the bill as unpaid — what should I do?
This sometimes happens with a 1–2 day delay in MEPCO's system updating. Wait 48 hours and check again. If the bill still shows unpaid, contact MEPCO on 118 or your regional office with the transaction ID from your receipt.
Can I pay my MEPCO bill in instalments?
Not through payment apps — but MEPCO offers official instalment plans for large bills. Visit your Sub-Division office and request an arrangement from the SDO or XEN, depending on your bill amount.
Is it safe to pay MEPCO bills through JazzCash and Easypaisa?
Yes. Both platforms are regulated by the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) and use encrypted transactions. Always pay through official apps downloaded from the Google Play Store or App Store — avoid third-party links.
