KPUB’s short message service (SMS) number has changed to a unique toll-free number to serve our customers more reliably and efficiently. Our new toll-free SMS phone number will be 1-855-959-2596. Customers that have previously enrolled in our texting service through their SmartHub account will receive a text message notifying them of this change on June 10th.
If you have yet to enroll in our texting service, here is how to do it:
- Create a SmartHub account on the free SmartHub app for App Store and Google Play
- Input your current mobile phone number in the SmartHub app under notifications and manage my contacts
- Now you are signed up and are able to report outages, get an outage status, and receive updates
-
- To be eligible to report text outages, you must be a single active account (multiple account holders are not eligible for the text feature)
Using the texting feature:
- Text 1-855-959-2596 “OUT” to notify KPUB that your power is out
- Text 1-855-959-2596 “STATUS” to check the outage status and receive an update
Other features and benefits to the free SmartHub app:

The text feature on the SmartHub app makes communicating with KPUB easier, faster, and, most importantly, more efficient. Download the free app today through the App Store and Google Play.
