I don't like balanced billing for anything.

I like to know what I used, when I used it.

Same goes for my oil deliveries. No balanced billing for that either.



I know how much I use. I get a bill every month telling me how much I have used for that month. It also tells me if I am over or under the amount estimated for that year.

I know what the estimated bills look like. Like I said I am just not a fan.

Maybe I should have said to be more clear... I like to PAY for what I used, when I used it. That way I can look up my register in Quicken and track what I spend over time.

Besides, my monthly bills are usually pretty level for the year anyways. I pay more electric in the summer, and more heat/oil in the winter.

I don't do it. I actually read my meter. I like to pay for what I use. This way, I know I'm not paying more than I should be. Also, by seeing the changes in the bill, I can try to monitor our usage better and try to cut back on our bill.

I do the same for our gas bill. I read the meter every month and call in the reading.



I agree. I like to see what I am using, and cut back if it gets too high. I don't trust myself, if I pay the same amount every month, I'm afraid I won't be as conscious, use up more than I want and get a bigger bill at the end of the year.
