Billing dispute or a disconnection notice? Start your complaint through our complaint process as well, and we push it out to Toronto Hydro by email, social media and printed letters.

To report a power outage to Toronto Hydro, call 416-542-8000 and choose the outages option, or check the Toronto Hydro outage map first to see whether the outage is already known. If you see a downed or damaged wire, stay well back, treat it as live and report it straight away, calling emergency services if anyone is in danger. Before reporting an outage at a single home, check your own breakers or fuses, because a fault inside the home is not part of the distribution system.

If an outage damaged equipment, note the times the power went off and came back and keep photos and repair quotes.

To escalate a complaint with Toronto Hydro, use its own complaint process: start with the Customer Experience team, ask for a manager if you are not satisfied, and complaints that need more review go to its Customer Management Services team. After that, Toronto Hydro lets you take the complaint to its Office of the President and then to its Customer Advocate, who checks that the policies were applied fairly; a complaints email address is in the contact details at the top of this page. Each time, give your name, account number, the details of the complaint and the name of the manager you dealt with, and leave out card, social insurance or driver's licence numbers.

A disputed bill is easier to escalate with the bills, the meter readings and a short timeline of every contact.

Yes: in Ontario, Canada, the Ontario Energy Board (OEB) handles complaints about the electricity and natural gas utilities it oversees, and Toronto Hydro's distribution service is one of them. The OEB generally expects Toronto Hydro to have had the chance to put things right first, so keep a record of every call, letter and complaint reference.

No. Toronto Hydro says it never sends emails or texts asking you to accept an electronic transfer, credit or refund through a link, and those messages are after your personal information. Fake bills charging a "Smart Meter Deposit" are another trick, as that charge does not exist, and it does not accept bitcoin at all.

Nothing has been reported about Toronto Hydro here yet. Our research shows what typically goes wrong at electricity distribution utilities: bills that jump without a clear reason, disconnection notices and payment arrangements, outages that run past the restoration estimate, slow new connections and service upgrades, and problems opening, closing or moving an account.
