So as previously reported, ummm, a few members received this e-mail, which said in part:

(this was e-mailed to PECO)....your explanation appears to address our situation, but this problem also occurred previously, and indeed, happened again tonight for our First Friday.

The costs to our businesses are staggering. Food losses in the several thousands for Positano, Cafe San Pietro, Supper Supers, Felicia's Pizza, damage and costs to King's Collar, Merion Art and Repro, Past Present Future, and I'd hunch all their neighbors....this problem MUST be addressed...permanently. This transformer problem, according to a merchant who has been here for 20 years, states that this is an on-going problem.

We all know the phone number you've provided, and those who have called are still waiting for repair men who never showed up. One came for me, and tested the voltage. I had a brand new energy efficient 12,000 btu unit installed last week for $900 that's useless. My 220 plug needs at least 206 to operate......

I went to the Ardmore Post Office on Friday, and it was closed due to no electric. Ardmore deserves your immediate attention.

We further said the other day:

Now you know how we love taking PECO to task. We're going to do it again if they don't address this situation ASAP. HEAR THAT PECO? SAC IS PREPARED TO LAUNCH ANOTHER REVERSE PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN

If you live in Ardmore and have had inexplicable and frequent power outages - we want to hear from you!

Now we hear residents are having unexplained outages as well. We also hear that PECO is "looking into it".

Small business owners have asked us just today: how long does it take to look into outages that have been occuring off and on for years?

Ohhhhhhh, now SAC doesn't like hearing those things PECO...and PECO, you remember the LAST TIME we got involved?

It started with http://www.saveardmorecoalition.org/node/799, then there was, http://www.saveardmorecoalition.org/node/837, http://www.saveardmorecoalition.org/node/842, http://www.saveardmorecoalition.org/node/827, http://www.saveardmorecoalition.org/node/859, and even posts from other blogs up here, including this one: http://www.saveardmorecoalition.org/node/1042

Sooooo....PECO, you getting where we're going? We have an unnatural utility habit, because basically we feel consumers (us) should get what we pay for....we pay through the nose...so we should receive in return Ritz Carlton service....

Small businesses have a hard enough time staying in business without having to deal with mystical power outages that someone is "studying".

Consider this post as but the beginning of public pressure to not only reserach the problems but to SOLVE them. Our members are being relatively well behaved for the time being. Remember that.
