I think most of us have had our fill of bad news lately, well I have some good to report. I got an email from my electric company that starting in 2021 they will be offering a 5 percent reduction on utility bills to their customers!! WOOT< WOOT! How often does that kind of stuff happen? Most utility companies are raising rates non stop it seems. So Yay, and yay! Any good news in you wish to share?

As Mr. Rogers would say, 'it's a beautiful day in this neighborhood!' I'm glad you're getting a discounted price:)

So am I, and their rates were low to begin with compared to what the surrounding areas charge for their power! I am going to have to send them a Thank you email!

@kobesbuddy They really are a nice company. They also keep bills low around the holidays.

That is great too! Our company usually gives one very low bill for December due to the holiday season.

That is great too! I got one break on my dental insurance bill, but the next month they were back to charging full freight.

That us probably why they are doing it, although they didn't specify that.

Some companies are sympathetic with the Covid situation and will work with you on bills, but to my knowledge you are still going to owe the money..they aren't going to forgive the debt. This company actually lowering rates for the forseeable future is doing outstanding work in my opinion!

Yes, I wish this state had deregulation. Unfortunately, they do not. I like my provider even more now though...

@snowy22315 I can still put on socks while standing and not leaning against something.

I am so glad you are getting a 5% reduction from your utility bills this year. I wish I had good news but right now no. I am happy you are getting good news.
