I shut off my gas service 3 years ago. After one year they started billing again. I called and had it "shut off" again. I was told it had been put "on hold" which would prevent billing for up to one year. At that time they came out and put a lock on the shut off valve. Another year goes by and a knock on my door telling me they need to "inspect the connection". Ok. why not? The guy takes pictures and uses a "sniffer". All good, see you in six years for the next "inspection". The very next month I start getting bills addressed to occupant. Seems someone noticed in the pictures, the meter had ticked 0.1 from the last bill over the two years, with NO devices attached to the meter. Months go by as I laugh at each slightly increased bill for the 0.1 plus fees. Finally I've had enough and call to see what's up. The guy tells me its an automated system. But to be sure it stops they "NEED" to come out again and remove the meter and shut off at the street. Ok, lets do that. Guy says "I just need a name to put on the work order." I say call me Occupant. HA!
