PG&E Has got ya by the B*lls

[BnLM5]

I am so frustrated with the PG&E right now, that I could . (Pacific Gas and Electric co.) I don't know if everyone uses PG&E or not. I know when I lived in Carson City, Nevada I had Smud which is unheard of around here. Anyway back to my point. In Feb my bill was $128.00 and in March it was again $128.00 But in April my bill was $438.00 and may $439.00, june and july it is still increasing. This is crazy. I swear the SOB's have you by the B*lls. I am sick to death of it. I have checked my well and I did not use the dryer (electric) one time in April. How in the hell could my PG&E bill be that high? I live in a small place. WTF? I am a little ticked off right now at these people. How can they get away with this? Does any body have any suggestions about what I can do? I mean this can't be right. And they say that is what the meter say's. They need to take their meter and shove it where the sun don't shine as far as I am concerned.

did you use your AC? heat? do you turn your AC off, or just program it to regulate the temperature?

What's the square footage of your home? We pay an average of $60 a month on gas and electric at our apartment, but it is small, only around 1000 sq ft.

That's highway robbery. Contact you city counsel and county supervisor.
Organize your neighbors.
Don't let this go.
My highest bill for one month was $320 last winter and I had 2 electric heaters going 24/7/

Did they tell you about your 350% increase?
That is regulated by the city and county and increases have to be approved.

20% increase would make headlines
There is something wrong.
Raise bloody hell Lori.

OMG AR EYOU KIDDING ME. well my highest bill ever was last year during the winter. but it was high because my pipe for the hot water was leaking. i didnt find out till i noticed my bill. im not sure if your local news has a dept where u can file complaints and they will check on it for u at pge. they usually help people and get credits for them. well u better raise hell. this is crap. what a buncha crooks. hey check all your pipes and make sure u dont have a leak somewhere because my bill was about that much when i had that problem.

Thank you all for your input. I appreciate it very much. I have had it. I live in a very small place prob smaller than Tay's apt. All I know is that they have you by the B*lls. And sucks! I mean WTF I could move and pay more rent and live in a better place for the price I am paying to PG&E. I really think it is wrong. I am soooo sick of it. I am going to try to call again tomorrow, and see what they tell me about this one.
