Don't think Bejing, China benefits from using coal!!

Could it be the disabled nuclear reactor sitting over at Chrystal River, 50 miles due west of The Villages? This has been the biggest debacle in FL's energy history. Google it sometime and read all about it.

It does not sound like what I am going to say is the correct answer for the OP, but I have been told by SECO that I will be billed for 6 weeks rather than 4 becaue they changed the billing cycles. Thus I get two extra weeks before a bill, but it will be larger than usual !!!

Got ours today. Used 1027 kwh and billed $121.46 plus tax.
Says last year daily avg was 19 kWh/ day and this year is 32 kwh/ day.
That includes the pool at 8 hours and heating for 3,200/sf with 2 units.
Better than MI which was. $130.00 for gas with the thermostat set at 57 degrees and sitting empty.

Our SECO bill was about the sme as last month but TECO bill TRIPLED! It wasn't THAT much colder!

Wendy,
Re-read my posting (below) from the thread about TECO bills tripling. It should explain why. It may not be what you want to hear but should explain.

Look at the Billing Information. For example, my gas bill (TECO) shows in December that I used 6.2 "therms". January was a cold month and I used 39.4 "therms". The "PGA" is the purchased gas adjustment. That is the cost of gas purchased for the customer by Peoples Gas and delivered to your home. That cost was 88 cents per therm. In December 2012, that cost was 78 cents per them. Prices have increased.

Yes, my bill tripled but it was a very cold month and I stayed warm.

Ask yourselves what your gas heating bill would have been in Minnesota, Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, or those other freezing cold places we came from -
and you will probably be glad you pay what you did in January in The Villages.

Check any of your old bills from where you came from and I would bet there is the monthly service charge on those bills, too.

Seco came today and checked the meter, it was miss read and they will send me a corrected bill............all is well
