@DuquesneLight Another outage in the 15202 area....unbelievable.

@DuquesneLight Leech of a company. You don’t even try to hide it anymore. A normal summer storm basically guarantees a power outage now. Scumbag utility company.

@DuquesneLight Our power has been out since 3:18pm. Can you tell us when it will be restored and what caused this power outage?

13 hours without power. That's a double digit power outage in each of the last 3 years for @DuquesneLight. You'd think I was rural, but no, this is Pittsburgh.

Breaking News. @DuquesneLight ignores paying customers and let's them freeze while out of power because they refuse to pay overtime. More information coming as the power outage for Mt Oliver continues.

Another month, another @DuquesneLight power outage. I get like 10 a year. It’s not normal.

Two days in a row, I return home, and @DuquesneLight has suffered a power outage. At what point can the @PA_PUC step in and investigate a utility for chronic power outages and failure to provide sufficient, reliable service? DLC outages are a constant in my neighborhood.

Another thunderstorm; another @DuquesneLight power outage in Carnegie. Very frustrating that they can’t get their act together.
