    i am a scottish power customer,and yes you can claim compensation for loss of power especially when it has been as long as this.keep a note of every time you are without power for more than four hours and they have to compensate you for this, if it happens twice in a year.

    I think you can only claim from your own house insurance in these cases ,, If uninsured agaist food loss you might be out of pocket .. You can ask Scottish Power though ..

    You can claim money from your insurance company, not the power company.

    Maybe if you can prove they cut power intentionally and through not fault of yours (IE: not behind in your payments).

    If everyone did that, they would simply increase the price of your electricity to cover the costs.
