Default Re: Electricity Bills & the \"competitive market\"

i have similiar situation with gas bill here in atlanta

i only have heat/fireplace/outside lamp on gas...in spring/summer/fall when no heat used, it costs $60 just to run the lamp due to the basic charges that u get even if u don't use 1 therm of gas...so i have to have them disconnect it every March and then reconnect it in November...and it costs $50 to reconnect as well...

so i can choose from like 10 diff providers, but they all use atlanta gas light's pipes, which is where the high bill comes into play
