A line down on our road, in street with cones around it, sat there for 3+ days. Nothing. No info on website until yesterday & then kept changing time. Finally came @ 6 last night for less than 10 minutes & left. No power another night. Mom's oxygen ran out @ 3AM. (Had posted restoration for 10AM yesterday.) Came today & fixed in less than 1 hour, street gets power back within 1/2 hour. Why wasn't anyone updating info? Where were all these trucks? Certainly not "working around the clock" here!!! Our generator wouldn't start & neither would our neighbor's. So sick of blame for incompetence pushed onto customers. Never saw 4 days without power with obvious problem already flagged & apparently less than 1 hour to restore to almost 100 homes. Ridiculous. Should not be at mercy of private company.
