Default Duke Energy Fixed Bill Warning
My mail delivered an offer from 'FixedBill' option from Duke Energy to 'help' me with my budgeting of my electric bill. I called them and found out that the dollar amount they offer does NOT include taxes and fees. NOR does it include products and services like 'surge protection' and 'home wiring protection'. It ONLY covers actual electric use and they don't give a refund if their estimate is higher than actual usage. I went back over my bills and averaged out my monthly electric usage. My use is $15 LESS than Duke's offer of $76 a month. So...I would be paying Duke Energy $180 extra a year for the privilege of knowing each month what my electric bill will be. NOT A GOOD DEAL in my opinion.
