Sometimes you gotta squeak that wheel for all its worth!Resistance is futile.
Nothing surprising is happening.
Oldest son was asking, he had gotten letter asking to put in "smart" meter and SAVE $$$$.
He and Wif work rotating shift. I asked how is that going to be, when you or her are day sleeping and they shut off A/C.
He refused to sign up.
4 years later, Wif wakes up, hot in house. He gets home, sees meter has been changed.
Called electric company. They claimed nothing had been changed. He told them his nurse wif worked nights and had a/c. He was contacting lawyer, he had pics of the old meter and new, with a copy of refusal notice. There was a service truck out within an hour.
A week later he receives a customer satisfaction survey on his new smart meter.
He hasn't received anything since, but a monthly bill, which went down.
