“Dear PoPville,
I was wondering if you’ve heard anything DC residents having unexpected and inexplicably high pepco bills in the last few months. Long story short, starting early December (specifically the week of 12/6), our Pepco bill doubled from historical levels. I am rather… frugal, and I watch this bill religiously, so this did not go unnoticed. I also am in data analytics,
so I downloaded all my Pepco data and found that yes, Pepco is showing a BIG spike in usage since that date, even when my apt was completely empty and we turned the heat down to 55. The rate per kwh did not change, so this is telling me I’ve doubled my usage, and I know I did not.
My girlfriend just got a slack message on her company’s “random” channel, and another woman was complaining of exactly the same thing, and a few other folks have responded to that thread claiming the same.”
