Need to report an outage? Just text us! Mid-Ohio Energy's outage texting service provides a quick alternative to calling us during outages.
To be able to text power outages, please follow these simple steps (or view this short video demonstration):
-
Call the cooperative office to make sure we have your cell phone number(s) recorded in our system. This is important, simply texting our main phone number won't work.
-
After you have given the cooperative your cell phone number(s), go register for the service. The registration process is simple and takes less than two minutes.
-
You will be given an outage “texting number.” Add this number to your contacts list on your cell phone so it’s ready when an outage occurs.
Now you are ready to text us in the even your power goes out!
Please contact our offices if you have any questions or comments.
