Electric company offers to let me pay more!


My electric company has included a tempting offer in my bill this month. If I sign up for their flat rate plan with a 12 month commitment, including a mere $100 cancellation fee. This amazing plan that will "save me hundreds of dollars" will do so by billing me at a flat $0.142 per kWh.

Wow!

The only problem is that my bill tells me I'm paying $0.139 per kWh. Uh...thanks for the offer?

Have you looked back at your average kWh rates for the past year? If the rates vary during peak seasons, you may have a deal... but otherwise, you're smart for being skeptical.
