A couple years ago with the lake house shut down, all power shut off, we got a power bill for $1500 for one month: eek:

Upon calling the power company we found they issued the bill based on a "estimate" of the power we should have used that month. We demanded an actual reading and they fixed the bill to less than $20 for the month.

This house is shut down in November and reopens in May. My sister pays the utility bills for the house from the family general funds and she had paid the bill then called me and asked if I had gone up and stayed the month.

She no longer pays strange bills with out asking first.
