Did you lose power due to tropical storm Isaias? If you lost power you also probably lost a lot of perishable food in your refrigerator and freezer. Not everyone is lucky enough to have a generator and spoiled food is a big financial loss to families. Fortunately, conEd is extending their claims policy for customers who lost power after Isaias. If you lost power for more than 48 consecutive hours you are entitled to a reimbursement. Here’s what you need to know.
