Im game for pricing system like cellular service providers use, wherein the user pays a set rate for what they presume they will use, based on calculations for their family size, other considerations.. overages cause the price at the bill cycle to sky rocket!

Give them 3-6 months for new homes to determine Requirements, where there are no overcharges.

Alternatively, select and purchase a plan ridiculously higher than you think you need, and get a credit if you only make it to the next lower tier, etc.

For instance, you purchase a plan for 1000kw/h per month, and only use 650, well within the limit of the 800 plan just below yours. For this month, we put you on the 800 plan, instead of the 1000 plan, and credit the difference to your acct.

After 3 monthsof this happening, you are either forced to switch plans (so you don't use the program to avoid overages), or you lose the rebate program and stay at the higher package price, regardless of use.
