trevoromgh Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 I use the PEA website to check my electricity meter readings but I've just received an odd message which is stating the website has been hacked. I am in the UK currently so I'd be grateful if someone in Thailand can confirm they too are getting the same message please? The website address is http://www.pea.co.th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't use a phone app only browser access of the PEA website which means it is effectively closed for business until the PES IT security fix it (assuming they have got such a team) perhaps someone who speaks Thai can send them an email just to tell them their system has been compromised.

Thanks but I use a different method where you don't have to login but just enter your account details rather than username/password but the method I want to use is hacked so I'll have to give up until they eventually fix the problems. Just hope the hackers don't change peoples meter readings arrrgghhhh !! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that might give the powers that be the kick they need to take cyber security seriously. I'll definitely be double checking my electricity bill next month. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crossy Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 It seems to be back up now, no "hacked" message. I always use the app anyway, I wonder how long the main site had been compromised before anyone noticed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradiston Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 If you have a Thai bank account and online banking you can pay your bill as long as you have your account number. Don't need to go to pea website. Your bank will display the outstanding amount. Just press pay! So easy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
