Check MEPCO Bill By SMS

No internet? Learn how to get your electricity bill amount and due date on your mobile phone via the official MEPCO SMS service.

While checking your Mepco bill online through portals like mepcobill.pk is the best visual way to see a full breakdown and download a PDF, there are times you simply lack internet access. For users in rural connectivity zones—or anyone just wanting a quick summary on an old feature phone—the SMS service is a lifesaver.

Why Use the Offline SMS Method?

  • No Internet Required: Perfect for areas with spotty 3G/4G coverage.
  • Universal Compatibility: Works on all mobile devices, from flagship smartphones to basic keypad phones.
  • On-The-Go Speed: Receive an instant summary of your Mepco bill wherever you are.

The Exact Shortcode Process

Getting your Mepco bill amount directly into your SMS inbox takes seconds. Here is the process visualized:

SMS Message to: 8118
05123456789012
MEPCO BILL FOR DEC
Amount: Rs. 4,350
Due Date: 12-Dec-2025
Status: UNPAID
  1. Find an old/previous Mepco bill and locate your 14-digit Reference Number. If you do not know where this is, check our visual Bill Guide.
  2. Open your phone's default messaging app.
  3. Type your 14-digit reference number (e.g., 05123456789012) without spaces.
  4. Send the message to the official shortcode: 8118.

Within a few moments, you will receive an automated reply from MEPCO. If the SMS indicates an unusually high amount, make sure you haven't accidentally shifted into the Non-Protected Tariff category.

Note: Standard network SMS charges apply when messaging shortcodes based on your mobile carrier's tariffs.
