Yah, it's awful.
At least 21,000 We Energies customers are getting hit with unexpected bills totaling about $3 million after broken meters failed to accurately report natural gas usage this winter
We Energies is back-billing customers by estimating their gas usage.
As you might imagine, some folks are unhappy with the results.
A couple of days ago we got the bill for usage from early April through early May. We used LESS natural gas and LESS electricity than the year-ago period. (The utility provides cute little charts right on the bill.)
And the bill was higher than the year-ago comparable--by about $30.00. That's because the utility is charging more per therm and per KWH than last year.
Too bad about the meter problem, but hey! Prices are up, folks.
