Re: So

said by Van:

How would a consumer know if what the meter says is correct?

Most people couldn't estimate how many kilowatt hours their air conditioner uses in the summer, but they know when their bill is off.

said by Van:

My parents and friends would not have even the SLIGHTEST clue how much they use per month

I bet they'd figure it out if they had a financial incentive to do so.

I am not sure what exactly this point means anything other than how absurd it is to expect consumers to know whether their bill is correct or not.

Ah, so on top of the bill we pay for the over-priced, under-performing service....we are now being told that the company has little to no incentive to actually bill consumers correctly because frankly, it is the consumers fault for not GUESSING correctly whether their bill is correct or not?

Is that it?

That's one possible way of completely misinterpreting what I said, yes.

What exactly did I misinterpret?
