They only read my meter once a quarter. The other two bills are estimates based on the most recent amount read. The problem is my boys are home only certain months of the year. I end up getting one large bill to catch up then they rebill that same amount two more times. It's really not good system!

 

My Wife is currently helping a family friend whose electric bill was $ 4,000 due to power company errors!! Yes--they are wrong--but it is turning out to be quite a hassle and quite stressfull...

 

UPDATE: I emailed the supervisor of meter reading dept a photo of my meter dials. She agreed that the hundred dial (2nd from left) appeared to be running fast. They replaced the meter late last week, did a re-light and safety/pressure check. So far so good...
