It isn't just the electric companies.
When mother was in the Assisted Living, we kept her home up and running. It was always there, if she could ever come back to it. Not our until she passed.
The water company came out to turn off the water. Got hold of my brother.
Said we had used 9,000 gallons enough to fill a swimming pool becuse the meter hadn't moved much or they said moved a lot.
Said we had a massive leak under the floor. Brother paid the bill.
It was totally bogus. Only water used was when I or others were out to clean the home and to make sure the pipes were clear.
I raised, a fit, with Brother, but he didn't want to cause a problem with water company.
Sum and total, of it, the water company stole over two hundred dollars, seem to remember. Should name the company but it would get deleted.
I know our bill here for 19,000 gallons one month was bogus. No way, in paradise, a family could use that much water without a pool.
Arguing was to no avail. If I get able again I will have a well put in or a pipe from spring, if it has enough pressure or not too much.
A Farmer, now deceased, had to run a faucet all the time because immense pressure from the spring would blow all the pipes, otherwise.
