NB Power up to their Tricks Again

Take a look at your July household power statement, it differs from the previous months. The older statements show the cost per KWH. Not anymore. If you want to know this cost, you have to get out your calculator. I am curious as to why they changed this. Oh, wait, I think I know. They figure the less you know, the better and they are also counting on you to be too stupid to calculate it out. Well for your information, the July cost is 8.98 cents/kwh as compared to 8.37 cents/kwh, an increase of 7.3% for consumed power up to 1300 kw. Well we read about that increase in the papers so no surprise there. But that bill format change is sneaky though. They are up to no good when they do things like that..

The service charge increased from $17.74 to $19.06, an increase of 7.4%. I must have missed that increase in the papers.

Well somebody has to pay for the mismanagement.
