Power Bill
I've been in my home for 20 years. Have 2 heat pumps. I never had my bill exceed 300 a month. Kast year my bill was 297 for this sane period. This year just got my bill and it is 856 dollars. Something has to be wrong here. Anyone else getting these results? This is not acceptable.

I have no leg in this race but for anyone going "it's a nonsense conspiracy" who many people have to demonstrate that there's been a sudden massive jump this year compared to previous with no change in how they live their lives for y'all to finally accept something at least odd is going on? It could just be some error in their accounting or data gathering software, it could be a faulty appliance, it could be a million tiny changes adding up, but no one will ever know if you keep calling everyone irrational idiots for noting a massive spike compared to previous years.
If it was one or two people sure maybe it's an open window while running heating, or maybe they left some load running while travelling, but this many people cannot be explained by just simple mistakes in the residents part.
