        Most utility companies have corrupt, overpaid leadership. Rates continue to escalate unchecked while the CEO are out yachting in the tropics.

        No mention of all the TAXES artificially inflating utility bills to pay for excessive government. My actual usage fee is always less than the added fee's & tax. Take a close look at the bill if you get one. Gov loves to prey on people that can only afford utility included apts

        Not having trouble paying, thankfully. but energy costs at home have almost doubled over the last two or so years.

        All you see is the headline and bury your head in the sand about the reality of why they struggle. Maybe they suck at managing money. Maybe it’s drugs. I wont automatically blame Republicans like you’ve been trained to do. Ignorant indeed

        I'm a retiree and I am extremely cautious about energy costs. I only run air conditioner for short periods, keep my thermostat at 65 degrees, and bulk up on clothes or take off as much as is decent.

        How is the electric car revolution going to work, at least in the near future, with the ongoing predominance of traditional electricity sources? Distribution costs are quite high in my rural area.

        Hi there, we're sorry to hear this! If you call 1-800-334-7661, you can speak to one of our representatives about setting up a payment arrangement to make it easier to pay your bills. We hope this helps!
