Loonietoon Posted July 25, 2020 Report Posted July 25, 2020 Has any one noticed the LARGE CHARGES on you hydro bill that Ford said would help because more people are home. OLD RATES were.....Off Peak...6.5 cents per Hr....Mid Peak ...9.4 Cents on Peak...13.2 cents..... Now all 24/7 as of June 1st .....12.8 cents per Hr..... Where are they SAVING US MONEY ?????? What do you think ??? 1
smitty55 Posted July 25, 2020 Report Posted July 25, 2020 No doubt he's definitely making up for the times when the rate was fixed at off peak rates and now we're paying for it big time. My bill this time has doubled but for sure some of it is due to the AC running everyday.
misfish Posted July 25, 2020 Report Posted July 25, 2020 Just paid $26 for the month of June. That was with the AC running 1/2 the month. Maybe yer getting ripped a new one ?

misfish Posted July 25, 2020 Report Posted July 25, 2020 (edited) I am just a small fish in the pond.LOL I am not complaining,nor am I going to ask them why. Oh and gas was $19. Edited July 25, 2020 by misfish
ketchenany Posted July 25, 2020 Report Posted July 25, 2020 Condo life! Probably hidden in maintenance fees but still a good deal. Gas was 293. Gas water heater and stove going all of the time. 1
Old Man Posted July 31, 2020 Report Posted July 31, 2020 Our bill went up even though we consumed less than last years bill. We did alot during off peak, laundry etc. Now at the so called “ Covid special rate “ our monthly bill was up by almost $20 even though we consumed less then last year. Just another way for Hydro One to screw a bit more money out of us.

I put more of the blame on Ford, he's the one allowing them to do it even though he keeps saying he's out to help Ontario residents with their finances, total Bull.
Fisherman Posted August 1, 2020 Report Posted August 1, 2020 Just for the heck of it, I did go and look, it's still flat rate until 31 Oct. Must be the AC eating the power like mad.

What do you think ??? Where did you get your old rates? Nov 2019 rates were 10.1/14.4/20.8 respectively. If you do the time weighted math, it works out to 12.8 c/kwh. Not sure how this really helps but anyway..... Edited August 4, 2020 by G.mech 2

It's called government math, they'll figure out a way to apply the proverbial screwdriver to you. Now it doesn't matter what time of day you do laundry, dish wash or cook, you're getting hosed.

If you're stuck at home and want use power during the peak hours, you're saving 8 cents/ kwh.....all depends on your situation I guess.
Fisherman Posted August 4, 2020 Report Posted August 4, 2020 Hahahaha, no more standing beside the dishwasher with a stick waiting for 7pm. 1
3Nancy3 Posted August 14, 2020 Report Posted August 14, 2020 I didn't realize there were no peak hours!! I have still been waiting till the late hours!! lol Shame on me! Our bill went way up but I thought it was only because of the air con in the window!! 😵
Fisherman Posted August 14, 2020 Report Posted August 14, 2020 Ya, looks like we are actually worse off than before. 1
Headhunter Posted August 14, 2020 Report Posted August 14, 2020 Yah, with a 1 horse pool pump, central air and450 watts running 7x24 for the Bearded Dragon, my electric bill was a surprise, but still not as bad as when Uncle Katie was running things. HH 2
