How long is that rate good for? I keep hearing horror stories about energy suppliers taking advantage of people by signing them up at a lower rate, but that they raise their rates after an introductory period. One woman was paying 48¢/kWh and didn’t even really know any better because she’d been paying that for a few years.

Just be careful and really read contracts, that’s all I’m saying.

Overall the utility hikes are absolutely brutal. We will struggle to pay ours this season due to the price hike and that's even after doing the MassSave insulation and converting to heat pumps. We're on the City's aggregation which is better than National Grid but still very high.

Already thinking about what I can due to improve the house before next winter......

My gas bill is $383 again this month and we keep the heater at 68 degrees. It’s a complete rip off. On top of the food price increase this is completely brutal. How are ppl expected to pay these outrages prices?
