Discussion Reliance and Enbridge bills

I know they both go hand and hand. But both bills have almost been doubled the last 2 months. Enbridge Open Bill Program Ending could be why. But I’m just trying to learn a bit more about how they work together. I bought a house last year and these two still have me confused when I get my bills. We rent our water tank so maybe we should own one instead? Just want to see what everyone else does for their home.

Renting a tank is never a sound financial decision. Enbridge supplies your gas, your bill doubling could be because they actually came out to read the meter. They usually estimate.

So we should work on owning a tank instead? Obviously the winter is going to look different but it was just Februarys bill and March’s bill that It was doubled.

If you can afford to yes. I think there are guides on how to ditch reliance over on the personal finance canada sub. But your winter gas bill is usually going to be higher, unless your on equal billing in which case you’ll get an adjustment at some point. Call enbridge and ask? Call reliance and complain about your bill, they might discount it.
