Rant!!!!!!

**superchargedblackgto** · 10-19-2007, 02:56 PM

Ok, here is my official rant thread. I just paid my Water bill, which was $97.40

Now, that is INSANE, they said I used 10,000gal of water, Now this is an extreme amount of water. This is wat it averages $90-$100 a month, I have the water efficient dishwasher, washer and dryer, top-o-the line crap. Now my electric bill averages $314 a month, The utility companies are screwing the crap out of me. Back to the local water company they just got new wireless readers so the FAT- !@#$'s don't have to get out of there truck, they just drive by, so I guess Im paying for the "new technology"? Anyway, I'm feeling better for ranting....LOL....however, still paying too much for utilities

END RANT.....

I have a well.

I spent $4,000.00 on it a decade ago and nothing since then. At a hundred bucks a month I would be quite far ahead...

You can't install a 400 foot deep "drain" and add a pump yourself after they drill it out? Sounds to me like "forced" revenue collection on the part of your town.

**bad boy 99** · 10-20-2007, 04:51 PM

wow thats high...my water bill is 13$ a month, electric is 70$, cable/internet (10 meg) is 69$ month...shitty ass 800square feet apt is 500$ month...

**Smkn_TA** · 10-20-2007, 05:03 PM

15 dollars a month for unlimited water use. And this is high quality h20 here. Wells can have shitty water and the companies that drill them are crooks. You have to treat the water yourself to be safe, and culligan treatment tastes like ass.

**Modulistic** · 10-20-2007, 05:38 PM

110 a month for water sewer and trash. they dont pick up the trash though you have to take it to the dumpster yourself... a mile down the road.

electric is about 40 a month but fuel oil (which heats my water and the house) is around 200 a month. and rising.

**67CamaroRSSS** · 10-20-2007, 05:46 PM

Summertime: elec ~ $250/month or so. Winter: elec ~ $50/month. All electric home in Phoenix burbs. That summertime is mostly AC running. Water/trash is ~ $45/month and the water tastes like ass. I'm not even sure about showering in it let alone brushing my teeth. The water I cook with and drink is bottled. This $$$ includes topping off the pool with city water when it needs it. Only other bill is the mortgage.
