¿Me da el número de reclamación?
Can you give me the complaint number?
Step by step
- Call 800 760 909 and choose “facturación” or ask for “reclamaciones”.
- Identify with NIE and the CUPS code (starts with ES, on every bill).
- Explain the problem in one sentence and give the invoice number.
- If the reading was estimated, give the real reading; they can issue a corrected bill (“factura rectificativa”).
- Ask for the número de reclamación and the deadline for a response (by law, one month).
- If unresolved after a month, you can escalate to the regional consumer office (OMIC) with that number.
