That sounds about right. SMECO serves 161,000 accounts and the Capital Credits are divided proportionally among all of the accounts.

They redistributed yours to Softtouch.

It's supposed to be based on use, and mine was around $2. So softtouch must use a hell of a lot of the lectricity.

Word on the street is that we (residential customers) were the last to dip from the well. Larger accounts (the base, commercial, etc.) got first dibs and..... were even comped up to the full amount meaning that they got free electric for a while.

It's not a "first dip" situation. The total capital credit is divided among SMECO customers proportionately based on each customer's the amount each customer has paid during the period the capital credit is based on.

I got a 10 dollar credit but my bill went up $135 this month. Hopefully it won't be that bad next month. I have the new smart meter now so I wonder if that has anything to do with it.

[wubbles]

I didn't even look at anything besides the $250 total. Dang it's been hot.

 

[GWguy]

$9.53.

But my bill went from $110 to $250 for the A/C.
