Utility Bills

[karen77sg 0]

I need help on utilities bill issues...

I just opened a new acct in mid sep... my bill cycle is on 26th... In sep's bill, my bill was only $106 ($100 deposit) with 3kWh electricity, those refuse, sanitary appliance, etc included...

For the whole month of Oct till now, i din even step into my new house... but the electricity reading was 402kWh! cost me $85.30! I called up SP, they explained on the estimated reading based on last month usage x nos of days & submission on every even month... i still hv to pay & no offset...

Can i ask for any waiver? cos i'm paying for something that i did not use at all...

Can....write an email to them or call them personally and ask their staff to come down to check the meters...

Tat was wat I do when I just shifted in. I got a shock when the bills comes up to be $300 plus and they told me cos the previous owner always use tis amount of electricity/...as they only comes down every alternate mth to check the meter, so they happen to charge me tat amt. Bt I need to pay first and they will deduct accordingly and waive off on the next bill.

i live in 5 rm executive.

so far my bill is $50 plus.

think pretty low seeing the bills of the forumers here, i was surprised too.

cook abt 3 to 4 times a week.

wash clothes abt 2 times a week, follow by Dryer, cos i dun dare to hang my clothes out.

aircon on every night but shut off after a few hours or when room gets cold.

I use water alot cos i mop my floor every day as i had a dog, cant stand my floor dirty.

Vacuum abt every alternate days.

Dunno whether is it becos the electrical appliances i bought mostly are energy saving.

Like my fridge that i bought thou is big but it got 4 ticks on energy consumption.

Think aircon also.
