Calling in the Cavalry: The Phone Option
Let's be honest, sometimes you just need to talk to a real human being. For those moments, the JEA customer service line is your best friend: (904) 665-6000 or (800) 683-5542. Remember, these superheroes are available Monday through Friday, from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm. Just be prepared for some hold music - it might be your chance to discover your hidden talent for air guitar.
Pro Tip: If you're feeling fancy, you can also dial (904) 665-6250 to reach their commercial services department. Maybe they'll give you cookies? (Probably not, but a man can dream.)
Tapping into Technology: The Digital Disciples

So You Think You Can Dance? Reporting Power Outages

Frequently Asked Questions (Because We Know You Have Them)
How to channel my inner electrician and fix the power outage myself?
Unless you have a superhero cape and a degree in electrical engineering, leave the fixing to the professionals. Your safety is more important than your DIY dreams (and your house).
How to avoid future power outages with the power of positive thinking?
QuickTip: Skip distractions — focus on the words.
While positive thinking is great, it might not keep the lights on. However, regular maintenance of your electrical system and surge protectors can help minimize the risk.
How to convince my neighbor their disco ball isn't the reason for the power outage?
Diplomacy is key. Maybe offer them some battery-powered candles in exchange for turning down the disco inferno.
