So basically they screw things up, and we pay for it.

On a good note I got an email from my EMC saying that my electric rate will be reduced by over 1 cent/kWh for the next 3 months.

Default Water customers call on DeKalb County to cancel debt

Hundreds of metro Atlanta residents say they’ve been fighting unjust water bills for nearly a decade. In fact, one homeowner says DeKalb County claims that she used 200,000 gallons of water in two months. That’s enough water to fill up 10 swimming pools.

Monica Villaffane finds herself cleaning up more than just dirty dishes these days, she’s been trying to clean up a messy water bill for months.

“Right now, my bill is $22,000. That’s more than I paid for my car,” Villaffane said ..."

Sounds as if some people need to start by calling a plumber.

Get a professional on line to go to bat for them with the utility company. Only a professional can document whether there is an actual water line problem.

Imagine what their bills would have been if they'd been in many other more expensive cities for water.

I haven't paid my Dekalb water bill since in some time. Its over $5k currently.

They refuse to adjust a bill that had no reason to be so out of line. So I refuse to pay them anything until they actually acknowledge the issue. They put in a new meter - why? Last one was bad? Then stop asking people to pay the erroneous amts.
