Dear PoPville

“Has anyone else experienced their Pepco bills increasing drastically, both month-over-month and year-over-year?”

“Dear PoPville,

Has anyone else experienced their Pepco bills increasing drastically, both month-over-month and year-over-year? In my case, I’m not at my house several days out of the week, plus naturally keep the heaters off/low and unplug devices, so expect low bills.

Some details:

Recently received a notice about my bill being “higher than average” for the current bill cycle

Bill Date: 2/24 , $135 , 824 kWh

Bill Date: 1/24 , $175 , 1092 kWh

Bill Date: 12/23 , $125 , 754 kWh

Bill Date: 11/23 , $64 , 357 kWh

Bill Date: 10/23 , $53, 268 kWh

Below is a graph of my usage showing that, generally speaking, my usage is historically low, but Pepco is refusing to come out and check my meter:

Appreciate any and all help!”
