I have it on good source that it's not the little grayhaired old ladies living on fixed income that are the biggest offenders. It seems that many of the offenders are affording their multiple cars, bling bling and such by letting the rest of us foot things such as their electric bills which they don't bother to pay.

When you pay your bills on time, this shouldn't be an issue.

Read farther down the page and you will see that they can turn your power off but they will try to personally contact you first.
