People we need to rise up and defeat them somehow.They have been over charging me for years, stealing over and over and over again. It's not going to stop...unless we can figure out how to destroy them. Send in a spy, get hidden records. Uniting and taking them to court. Going off grid the first chance you get. Building tiny off the grid homes for a community. Working together...something...anything. How long will we take this abuse?...plz anyone out there...this madness has got to stop! Do we just give up all hope? Complain to one another with no solid solutions?

I have gotten three of them in the past five years because these incompetent ass tards fucked up the processing of my payment, and said I didn't pay them, thankfully I pay through my banks on line bill pay and after hours on the phone with these shitheads they "found" the problem, yeah the problem is they are like terminal cancer. They suck and you can't get rid of them. Not to mention now the mutant meter reader has now twice entered fraudulent fake readings causing excessive bills, and last year these dopes over estimated my bill do much that I did not catch up the next month. So what did these no common sense fuck heads do... They assumed I "flipped" my meter and sent me an $11,000 bill.

They claim to estimate it on last year's bill, but that isn't true either. Each month the bill goes up another $75.00, and each month it has been warmer than last year, and I don't even use or have electric heat. They think we are all stupid.

I am on ...Well, I haven't missed ANY payments. I am on a steady "budget" plan where I pay them $134 a month, every month. I don't know why. This is a small apartment and I conserve in every way possible, but there it is.<br /><br />So why the hell am I losing power on average 4 or more times a month? Most of the time it's just for a few seconds. Just enough to cause my computer to shut down and whatever I was working on to be lost, and all the digital clocks need to be reset. Other times it's been for between 2 and 18 hours. That last 18-hour one was caused by extremely bad weather conditions: yep, 10 minutes of light rain. Not even any wind.<br /><br />I call whenever there's an outage, and the system says every time that 63 households have lost power in my area. One can assume it's the SAME 63 households every time. So there's obviously some piece of faulty equipment out this way that they just keep duct-taping back together, but which suffers a failure whenever the sky even looks like it might be thinking of dropping a raindrop or snowflake. I cringe whenever a cloud passes over. Come winter, we have no alternative sources of heat out this way (New Lebanon, NY), and we also lose water. Because it's a somewhat rural area (even though we're right off a main highway), in the case of a widespread outage, I bet we're the LAST priorities where it comes to restoring power, too. Yet we pay the same rates as all the people who don't have these problems and who get their power restored quickly. How is that fair in the least?<br /><br />Isn't there an agency that regulates power companies and their standard of service? If they don't fix this issue before it gets cold again, I want to complain to them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15482583.post-46677684208209503862010-03-17T22:10:12.448-04:002010-03-17T22:10:12.448-04:00Well, here it is, I let the bill slide for 10 days...Well, here it is, I let the bill slide for 10 days, otherwise no arrears, and I get a shutoff notice.

Our nyseg bill for this small, not even 800 sqft house we live in was way out of proportion. So on top of the expense of a new baby, rent and all the other typical monthly expenses, we were really having trouble budgeting for the electric/gas bill..<br /><br />We would never NOT intentially pay the bill but we let it slide one month. Nycrap never contacted us or even sent a shut off. Then my hours got cut at work and then the struggle really began. We actually went another month with out paying and they simply just sent another bill, never called us and still no shut off notice.<br /><br />I know this sounds bad but it was more our financial circumstance at the time and YES we dropped the ball with them, WE were the ones not paying and WE take 100% responsibility for that, end of story...BUT In the end we went about 11 months with out paying and somehow NYSEG just kept sending us the bill YET NEVER contacting us and NEVER threatend us with shut off UNTILL December of that year.<br /><br />Now of course because of the closing of that fiscal year, I'm sure they HAD to do something with the account and THEN they called like, Johnny on the spot and they wanted ALL of it!! We are currently paying the crooks on a pmt plan and with MASSIVE arrears (again, our fault ultimately) and the threat of the agreement breaking the and the whole bill coming due at once if we are even late..<br /><br />I believe in taking responsibility and once again, I will admit to our fault in this BUT in actuallity nyseg did the same thing and dropped the ball with us and let us get get this far into debt with them. If this were any other electric company, even after four weeks of non payment, they would be ringing the phone off the hook, banging on the door asking, "What the hell is going on???" But not NYSEG. There is something wrong at the core here and this was NOT JUST our fault...thoughtispowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04176023040335981927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15482583.post-32134986783938086902009-10-14T20:31:59.647-04:002009-10-14T20:31:59.647-04:00To add to the top comment (forgot to proofread) We...To add to the top comment (forgot to proofread) We were working right at the business where they shut it off - all the open signs on, doors open, lights on , etc.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15482583.post-51242582491554628592009-10-14T20:30:34.833-04:002009-10-14T20:30:34.833-04:00NYSEG has really p$$$ed me off this time.

We have a business on one of them, and today - WHILE WE WERE WORKING- they shut off the gas for a 44 dollar bill without even talking to us, notifying us or anything. We only found out tonite, when one of the tenants called who is staying in an upstairs apartment and its 23 degrees out - There is no gas. We frantically ran around looking for the problem, and the gas was shut off. You think they would of hung a tag, a 24 hour notice or something on one of the doors?? noooooo - So I go online, OVERPAY them a lot of money so this won't happen again. I begin calling all their numbers, and nothing is open - ONLY the emergency number. I call the emergency number and they said we can't do anything until the morning. What a crock of crap this is!!!! I'm so fed up with NYSEG and their crap. Once the idiots came to read the meter, in my fenced in yard (where my dogs were playing). The guy left the gate wide open. The dogs escaped, I called and complained. I swear I think NYSEG has a bunch of huns running the place.
