I have just called the Customer Care at United Utilities (0845 3093003) and they say if Power was off for at least 18 hours then we will get £50 compensation automatically by cheque in the next 10-14 days. By my calculations - the power cut was from 03:05 to around 9:30 last night, thats 18.5 hours and then some more as it went off again during the night. Watch this space....
