Now merged with duke i went from 1000 khw per month to almost 3000 kwh with same usage, which is totally bogus

Ok, this is the first year i have lived in this address, it is a single wide single family residence. The first 3 months of living here the bill was at less than 1000 khw per month on the bill and i was pretty satisfied with the cost and usage and felt progress was a good company. Then i noticed, the power company doesnt even send people out to read the meter... That is when i started realizing something was suspicious.

We moved in mid december. Come april the bills started climbing slowly every month by about 500 to 1000 khw. Since we moved in the ac usage has been the same. 2011 had a fairly warm winter and by the time we moved in it was already getting hot, so the ac usage has been the same throughout the year. Throughout the year the bill climbed and got worse when i called in with complaints and started requesting extensions because i cannot afford the raise in charges and the bills got worse!!!

Everytime i call i get the usual shpeal of, set ac at 78 degrees, run ceiling fans, its during summer months, etc and then they tell me they cant give me an extension.
