People won’t even notice since we are accustomed to be with out electricity for the past 4 months
Mainly those from Long swamp to Long trench area will notice.
What I do notice is BVIEC effort to give a heads up regarding this specific happening within their control.
Thanks BVIEC! You guys and gals are super. Much love and appreciation for your tireless and unwavering and cheerful efforts????
the bvi is a third world country
Then you need to pack your bags and leave.

God Bless The British Virgin Islands. We are no third world country. We are a BLESSED AND HIGHLY FAVOURED COUNTRY!! We thank you you Lord for your blessings and protection every day.
Also continue to Bless those ungrateful persons. Have mercy on them. Thank you for your mercy on all of us.
Virgin Islanders Lets Give God thanks and Praise. He is worthy of all our Praise and Honour. His love for us is more than tongue can tell.
the truth hurts but what i said is the truth, its people like you who sit down and take the poor decisions from our governments and keep voting for them is why the bvi is like it is today
With this outrage notices, I now believe the BVIEC is on it’s way for greater and better service.
Informing the public on outage schedule is very important. A matter of fact that how advance countries does it.
Don’t just turn it off; keep up the good works and added improvement.
Your sterile intellect is a disgrace to all BVIslanders. It’s quite easy to write personal unverifiable “words” in cyber space.
No genuine native degrades his/her country, no matter the circumstances.
the truth hurts but it needs to be said
