How to Use the GEPCO Helpline 118

The 118 line is PITC’s national contact centre for GEPCO and the other government-owned DISCOs. Then it routes your complaint to the right office using your reference number.

1Dial 118Call from any mobile or landline, free of charge.
2Give your reference numberKeep the 14-digit number from your bill ready; it identifies your connection and area.
3Describe the problemSay what happened and since when, for example “no supply since 9 pm”.
4Note the complaint numberWrite it down or screenshot it; you need it to follow up or escalate.

After the upgrade in November 2025, the centre also makes a feedback call and reopens complaints that staff closed without a fix. If the line is busy during a storm or a wide outage, send an SMS to 8118 or use the online portal instead.

GEPCO Head Office Contact Details

For matters the helpline cannot settle, you can contact GEPCO’s head office in Gujranwala. In addition, the Customer Services Director’s office handles consumer matters at head-office level.

Start with 118 or your sub-division office, though. Head office usually asks whether you have already complained locally, so keep your complaint number handy.

Division, Circle and Sub-Division Offices

GEPCO serves seven districts through circle, division and sub-division offices. Your bill names your division and sub-division, which is the office to visit for billing corrections and meter issues.

DistrictMajor towns
GujranwalaGujranwala city, Kamoke, Nowshera Virkan

Office phone numbers change often, and we could not verify circle-level numbers from an official list. So ask the GEPCO helpline for the current number of your XEN or SE office when you need to escalate.

Beyond the GEPCO Helpline: Escalation Contacts

If 118 and your local office do not solve the problem, three independent bodies can help. However, each one expects you to quote your earlier complaint number.

Safety First in an Electrical Emergency

Never touch a fallen wire
Keep people and animals away from fallen or sparking lines, even if the power seems off. Call the GEPCO helpline on 118 to report it, and call Rescue 1122 at once if anyone is hurt or a fire starts.

Do not try to repair a service cable, meter or pole yourself. Instead, leave the supply side of your meter to GEPCO staff.

  • Know your feeder name, printed on the bill, for outage reports
  • Describe the problem in one or two clear sentences
