    Had rather assumed she was at a library or friends house. Anyway Usually as soon as they get the money order (payment). They are out the next day. To turn your power back on.

    As long as you pay at the Electricity place it should only take

    a couple of hours. Unless they are real busy.

    well, anywhere from 1-8 days. I suggest going and laying on the beds at Macy's until they close, then eat fudge in the dark. its fun!

    usually if you pay them all that you owe them they should have it back on for you within 24 hours..Did you ask them, when they might be out, after you gave them your payment? Id call them and ask them, that way you ll know for sure,

    It always takes longer than what they say......but all you need is a couple candles or a flashlight. Just hang tight until they tell you whats up.

    tink it depends on where u live......how many difficult customers the electrical man has to handle and how far to get to yr place to turn it on again.
