PPL has inappropriately billed me for electricity after I called them turned my electric off, left the premises where the electric was. My landlord called me and wanted the electric turned on for his benefit after my lease had been terminated. I called PPL and requested that the electric be turned on in HIS name. Tom was on the phone with us when the electric was turned back on in 2012!
Two years later I find out that there is a residual bill for electricity services after my lease had been terminated and I requested that the electricity been turned on in Tom’s name.
Evem though the bill IS NOT MINE to pay. I paid it. Please see email from PPL Electric company porving payment of 140.74.
Please remove every instance of this debt from my credit as I requested that services be turned off, and have even paid a bill that is NOT EVEN DUE. I never wanted or RECEIVED SERVICES.
Consumers should not be forced to pay for the mistakes of large companies and their own mistakes.
I JUST RECENTLY RECEIVED MY FIRST BILL FROM PPL AS I JUST MOVED TO WILKES BARRE PA ON 3/1/14 AND TO MY SHOCK AND SURPRISE MY FIRST ELECTRICAL BILL WITH PPL IS $1,014.17, I CALLED TO FIND OUT WHY THIS OUTRAGOUS BILL AND THE CUSTUMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE THAT ANSWERED STATED ""WELL THATS YOUR BILL EVERY MONTH"", NOW THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL I COULD HAVE RAN UP AN ELECTRICAL BILL FOR OVER $1,014.17 A MONTH, I AM NOT RUNNING A RESTAURANT OUT OF MY HOME, I AM SINGLE MOTHER OF 2 ON A FIX INCOME, THEY TOLD ME ON THE PHONE THAT MY METER WAS UPDATED AND THAT I HAD A SMART METER, THE METER THAT IS CURRENTLY ON MY PROPERTY IS AN ANALOG METER, SO I DONT KNOW WHERE THEY GET IS AN UPDATED SMART METER, I ASKED TO HAVE SOME ONE CHECK THE METER AND THEY TOLD ME IF I WANTED SOMEONE FROM PPL TO COME CHECK THE METER OR PERHAPS CHANGE IT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY MONEY OUT OF MY POCKET TO HAVE THEM JUST CHECK OR CHANGE THE METER, I HONESTLY THINK THAT METER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND CHECKED FOR PROPER SERVICE, PPL IS NOT GETTING AN ACTUAL METER READING, THEY ARE ESTIMATING MY USAGE AND MAKING IT SEEM LIKE IS AN ACTUAL READING, I AM CALLING EVERYBODY THAT WOULD HEAR ME AS I FEEL THEY ARE RIPPING CUSTOMERS OFF. IF ANYBODY KNOWS OF A NUMBER OR PERSON TO CALL FEEL FREE TO LEAVE ME THAT NUMBER AS I KNOW FOR A FACT I DID NOT SPEND $1014.17 IN ONE MONTH.
