For several months now we have been plagued by inaccurate meter readings, meter readers not showing up on scheduled dates, and the power company attempting to collect from us with an estimate of the current bill, NOT the actual amount due. We are now threatened with the power being shut off by the 1st of August, but the next meter reading is scheduled for Aug. 3rd. We have been told that this date is not flexible despite our multiple complaints to the company in the past regarding the tardiness of their meter readers, and despite the fact that we should be legally able to receive an accurate copy of the current balance before we remit payment. This to me is evidence not necessarily of a conspiracy, but of complicity within the bloated corporate structure of PSE&G. The complicity and hypocrisy of this nameless, faceless, I-don't-know-I-just-work-the-collections-desk type of mentality is threatening to put our business in a situation from which it cannot recover. Simply put, this is a steaming pile of FAIL on PSE&G's part! Stop trying to strong-arm the people who are providing a creative public service to communities within the city your organization obviously doesn't give a damn about!
