Electric Bills

SDG&E wants to change how you get billed, raising rates on people who uses the lowest amounts of electricity.


The facts are that I should not be charged MORE for using less. Further more, it's unfair that I should have to pay for someone who won't cut back like I have. -- Ashley

My concern is about the rate changes for electric bills SDGE. Why not just charge everyone the same rate so you pay for what you use and there is not an imbalance in fees. That makes more sense. -- Niki

I've thought about it all day and I still havn't changed my opinion. If I use less, I should pay less. If I save more I shouldn't have to pay for someone who doesn't. I your bill is too high USE LESS ENERGY AND DON'T EXPECT ME TO SUBSIDIZE THOSE WHO DO NOT. I am having trouble supporting myself right now, and can't pay for myself let alone others. That $2 dollars might mean I eat today or not. AND one last thought: If SDG&E wants to make those customers who have to pay more seem more fair, let them take that money out of their own pockets (SDG&E) instead of mine. -- Laurie

Well if SDG&E does what they say I am in big trouble. My wife and I live in an all Electric condo. We try our best to conserve, our bill is low most months.For example our bill was $58.14 Just the two of us also I have a medical device allowance, I guess San Diego Greedy &Expensive is not gouging it's customers enough. Oh well we try to conserve and we take it in the chops. Just like the water rates we conserve and they raise the price. -- Pat

The SDGE rate increase is absurd and ridiculou s! I have several friends employed by SDGE that receive outrageous bonuses every year. Sounds like a big scam to me! -- Liz

SDG&E wanting to change it's rate structure to charge people who use less more, makes no sense to me. If this happens then I'm through conserving. I will not pay more and use less. Lights will stay on 24 hours a day. -- Mary

I spent a lot of money to have a solar system installed on my house why should I have to spend more after I made this major investment costing me $16,000! My neighbor happens to have the largest house plan next door, the owner not only has her family living there but also has boarders living with her in the same house to make the house payment. Why should I be penalized because they use more with their larger house and I have gone to the extent of trying to conserve energy! If SDG&E wants to change the rate structure they should start by doubling the rates on those that have larger houses whose demands are larger than others. Perhaps start by charging double to those living in La Jolla, Encinitas, Cardiff, Carlsbad, Del Mar. -- Rachel
