Below is the petition we will be seeking signatures for, please read.
We, the undersigned, demand action from the Texas Public Utilities Commission (TPUC) and State Legislature:

2. Conduct energy audits and install energy effieciency programs to help save money for smart meter customers with higher usage.
3. Ensure that community leaders and consumer advocates are invited to participate in the independent investigation of Oncor smart meters to test their accuracy and to interview customers.
4. Impose an immediate moratorium on installation of smart meters until investigation is completed, and remedies implemented.
5. Charge Oncor - not ratepayers for all costs for the independent investigation, replacing any defective smart meter systems, and for upgrading and replacing smart meters during the next 20 years.

Over the last 3mths, my bill has soared tremendously. I have notified Oncor two times, per my provider to come out and check my meter and lines for any possible problems. Still two months later no feedback. So why is TPUC referring us to our electric provider when they are only billing us what Oncor reports? Oncor needs to be investigated to a full extent. Bottomline is they are lining their pockets at consumers expense and livelihood.
ReplyDeleteDear Ladybug - Oncor installed the Smart Meters and the reading is what they give your consumer electricity provider to bill you monthly. Oncor and the Smart Meter are the same entity.
ReplyDeleteHi all, I live in Sachse (Dallas county) and our bill for January was $525. The bill before was around $240. I called and complained with Reliant and Oncor came out and read our smart meter and said the reading was correct. But I am very upset because I KNOW we did not use 4049 kwH. I have bills from past months and all of them show that our kwH usage is in the highs thousands or low two thousands. I am very upset. I have registered unto this website and am also considering entering a complaint w/the Texas Utility Commission.

ReplyDeleteSmart phone is not very common now, how ever in a few short time it will be very popular. I really like the smart phone because present something different and i think it is very useful to everyone, that is why i prefer to looking for information about this topic or another one like costa rica investment opportunities i think it is very interesting.
ReplyDeleteI think that they have to rethink that way that they deliver the energy to their costumers. Energy is very important to the community. If they are increasing the price after some consume. We have to be notified way before. Because we need to be prepare because we need to buy others things like Generic Viagra

On what authority does anyone have permission to change these meters? What law? Where is the law coming from the Feds? Why are we following it, last time I checked the states have the right not the feds and when did we vote on new meters to screw us monthly?

ReplyDeleteThe first part of starting any new site is picking the niche you want it to be in hotel marrakech. My biggest criteria for this case study was finding a niche that should be fairly easy to get some traction in rapidleech servers, so I went for something pretty obscure pnr status. I don’t know how much money is here, so I’m taking a chance therescrapebox. But all techniques stay the same adwords coupon.
