I have been at my address since 1994 and have never seen the electric bill go so high, even when in the past I would have some months I did use a lot it would only go up to $400 the most now it is outrageous, and I have been paying my bill and still getting shut off notices, I have kids in the house just like everyone one else who are paying $1000 and up plus what ever else, people were struggling before and now it’s 10x worse, some people were told that they would be charged if they did not get the smart meter installed, but I was just told today when I called about my bill again that we are being charged a fee for having the smart meter and I was never given the choice if I wanted it or not no one let me know about a fee or anything about my bill possibly going up the guy knocked on the door and said he was just putting in a new meter he made it seem like mine was too old, they should be telling people about the meters and give us the choice if we want them or not and not lie to people by saying they will be charged if they don’t get them when they forgot to mention you get charged for having them, ..if the CEO was in our position where we are, barley making ends meet and got stuck with something we didn’t ask for that jacking our bills up when half of us barley could afford the high bills we used to get . I’m pretty sure the CEO wouldn’t appreciate her Bill jacked up for no reason they are jacking the price and ripping us off and raping us because of the new smart meters we never signed no contract with them for these meters or agree with the price to go up when they install these meters we don’t deserve to pay these outrageous bills every month and while trying to get bills paid up at the same time it’s basically impossible unless you’re a rich person I wonder how Allen Gary feels about this. He’s a residence of Sullivan County for the longest time his owners of Bethel Woods. He owns a lot of property around Sullivan County majority of Sullivan county I wonder how he feels. Maybe he should go to the meeting as well on the 27th and let him speak for herself. I don’t care how much money you got when you see your bill get jacked up that much. Something is definitely wrong. I guess there’s gonna be a whole bunch of class a lawsuits happening against the CEO of electric company that’s what I’ve been seeing online well, I’ll be there on the 27th with my old bill compared to my new bill and I’m not just bringing one old bill I’m bringing a few of the old bills and all of the new bills and let’s compare them what they’re doing to us. People is very unfair. I went from paying $140 to $180 a month to straight $400 close to $500 a month now this is ridiculous.
