You'll get a kick out of this.

Sat down sunday to write out the bills. when it came to the electric bill we 3 different ones.

The one that was do last week, which was the one we planned to pay. But because it was a couple days late they had also sent out the reminder before cutoff, and that showed $50 more than the bill due last week. So I openned up the bill that is not due until the 22nd of October. That showed zero due.

So I went strolling in there this morning fuly expecting to write out a check for between 150 and 200, but didn't know for how much.

I swear the City has les math and accouning skills than I do - 4 different people, 2 different computers and nearly an hour to get it straightened out.

The bottom line is that I had so overpayed, based on their budget plan calculations I will not owe them any money until at least the end of November!!!

Yippee - I can go shopping this weekend!!!

[xsmommy]

it is always a bonus to find out that something does NOT need to be paid! good for you!

[RikaStrom]

Yippy!!! Always good to get that kind of news!

[Gabz]

It was a bonus, that was for sre. and what it tells me is that my scheduled budget payment for this year is going to be a good bit lower than last year.

They prefer sticker shock of their customers in october billing, not giving credits!!!

[Gabz]

In past years my closing bill in October has ranged any where from 250 - 400. They still owe me 35!!!!!

[Gabz]

Just a word of warning - the daily carpet bombing is about to get under way!!!!

I wish it were a better quality - but because of the time of day and te angle of the picture. Oh wel.
