No grow lights. But I was thinking of getting some if I can't get this refund. ;-)
Seriously, thanks for the feedback everyone. Now that I have the time to explain matters in more detail I will try.
Account is my mother's name. She was diagnosed with dementia and Alzheimer's disease nine years ago. She died earlier this year.
I became her caregiver and co-owner of her house with full rights of survivorship. Her will has been probated. I have the "short certificate".
The PSEG account was left in her name and still is in her name. I am continuing to live here, but the house is for sale through a realtor.
I appreciate the person who mentioned a grant. I think she was receiving a grant through the county (Camden), and I say I think because after I applied for her ( and I included myself and my income on the application) I never got a response from the county saying "Yes. You are eligible for a subsidy of X$s"
The next year I got the application again, which I assumed to be an implicit acceptance. Calling the county on this was a nightmare. I ignored the last application.
So yes, there was probably a grant for an unknown amount.
As to why it was so high, that's a mystery. There would usually be an adjustment in the fall,
but only for one or two hundred. Now a $2300 reversal, and a $1900 credit after subtracting a $400 outstanding bill. The reversals go back through December 2013, so the above mentioned grant may not
apply that much.
I reread my meter reading scheduling and the last actual reading before 9/16/2014 was 11/2013.
I would swear that the meter reader was there a few times between those dates. I always thought I somehow missed him.
