      • What are the bill types and when do I receive them?

        The types of bills are as follows:
        - Estimated: It reflects and invoices the estimated consumption based on the consumption history of the supply.
        - Estimated with Readings provided by the Customer: It reflects and invoices the consumption based on the readings entered by the customer in the myEnerwave application. 
        - Actual: It reflects and invoices the actual consumption of the supply based on the readings communicated to us by HEDNO
        - Final: It is the last actual bill, which is issued on the basis of the final readings notified to us by HEDNO and terminates the representation.
      • Why am I receiving consecutive Estimated bills?

        The delay in the metering of the actual consumption of your supply by HEDNO, leads to the issuance of an Estimated Bill instead of an Actual one, given the absence of actual readings.
        Tip: You can contact HEDNO and enter your reading by phone at 800 400 4000 or online at https://deddie.gr/
