This is a little riduculous that people still have no electric. You can bet you *ss they'll still get one hell of a bill.

Ok well people really need to quit complaining. Yes it's hot and your aggravated but they are working 16 hours a day and 2/3 of Ohio was out so they are trying. Give them a break. They can't just bullshit it either. It's electric they have to take their time or they could get hurt.

With 2/3 of the Ohio electrical system out and thunderstorms moving in and out of the area the goings tuff. They are working 16 hrs a day and they are hard at work. They have restored many many homes and are continuing to work hard to get the lights on. Electric is nothing to rush when fixing one false move and their fried. Don't tell them how to do their jobs they can only work as fast and safe as they can. And AEP has already issued several reductions in billing, take the time to research before you go on a tyriad.

Well then how come this morning there was only 5,977 out at 7:04 a.m. and now it's back to 6,767. Just doesn't make sense when they were supposed to called in others from other states to help. I'm glad some has gotten theirs back on and hope and pray that none of the workers gets hurt while workin with all of this.

Give me a break here ppl. We act like we have had air our entire lives. It isn't the end of the world. They are hard at work trying. It's not like they can flip a switch. If it were that easy then it would be back on! The only ppl not fretting are the Amish.

I don't blame the guys working for AEP. They are great. I blame some of the tree issue on AEP for not hiring enough people to trim trees up. Years ago you would see them trimming trees up all the time and now when joy call AEP for a tree issue no one shows up. And I believe AEP doesn't want to pay their people until they have to for the extra work. And this is my opinion.

Hey family member you probably never lost any electric that's why your running your mouth. Alot of people have lost alot of food, can't get any ice to put anything in cooler or anything so yes people is a little pissed. What happened to the electric companies coming out keeping the trees trimmed? This probably wouldn't have been so bad if alot of the trees had been trimmed. I understand that they need to take their time and hook sh*t up right so no one gets hurt but there is a lot of old people who need oxygen and such that are frantic. And just so you know if people don't have electric how are they supposed to know that Wellston got knocked out again. Stupid.

It's not as easy as your making it out to be, most power lines run through extensive tracks of wooded land. Do you really think trimming trees would help that much, most of the power lines that are down are because of trees being uprooted. There are stations set up for those who need a place to stay. Blaming AEP for electrical problems is juvenile, they are working as fast and as hard as they can. But as they say, ignorance is bliss. As long as you fail to listen to reason arguing with you is pointless.
