You know sometimes I think its Highway robbery what an electric company charges if a persons is late.
I really never payed much attention to how much the late fee was because I always try to pay it on time. Mine is always due by the 3rd, so I was looking at the bill again to see what the amount is.
I was surprised to how much it would be if paid after due date. The amount charged on my bill was over $10, so I looked at the month before and it was over $13, so I flipped the bill over and seen they charge a penalty of 5%.
Just think of how much money a light company is making a month off just late fee penalties then! Like I said, that's like highway robbery!
But what can do, nothing! I'll just make sure I keep paying my bill on time!

Oh yes, that is why people need to pay their bills on time. And if you really think about it, it's kind of like gas, they know they can charge what they want because people are not going to do without it.
