Electricity bill - another LNP lie

boris1gary — Wed, 08 Oct 2014 00:16:41 GMT

Just got my electricity bill, the first full one since the end of the carbon price. Our average daily usage has gone down from the same time last year as there are only 2 of us now. So the great big savings promised by the woeful abbott -

$23

but our usage has gone down , so the savings is less than $23 -

22.51kWh - daily average now

25.14kWh - same time last year.

I am not expecting any savings................... I have online billing................ and can never get in there to look at anything. Last month I received a letter asking me to renew my plan.

Fine................. can't do it online unless I am changing it.

I received a flyer I the post telling me the % of savings I could expect from the repeal of the carbon tax. When my bill arrived recently with another flyer still telling me of the savings I would see although this time omitting the %, it actually showed a price ruse with two tariffs and the supply charge, 1 tariff did go down along with my solar feed in tariff.

I have complained to my energy company who have told me they legally had to send out those flyers. Their excuse was a price hike on June 25 and then the repeal started on 31st July. They are in damage control and offering me a $35 credit.

I'm not surprised and was under no illusion that the carbon tax repeal would benefit anyone except the biggest polluters. But it's the misleading propaganda thst I'm very annoyed about.
