Our electric company, NStar ( 
) disconnected the power to our condo today. Apparently, their records stated that apartment 1 (which is us) is our upstairs neighbors… so we’ve been paying their bill since August!!! Yeah, not cool. Not cool. This means we have no lights, no heat, no appliances and no internet (since the router is not working). I’m still at work (it’s past 10 pm) so I’ll only feel it at night when I’m freezing my butt off, but unfortunately that also means no real post today (I can’t upload pics at work).
Hopefully this mess is cleared out by tomorrow… and hopefully our hundreds of dollars of groceries do not spoil. Again…
In other news, have you bid on some baked goods for Haiti today? I think I won THREE different things. I’m all for satisfying my sweet tooth while helping a good cause. 
What a crap electric company!!! They better return you the difference of money if you’ve been paying too much!
Good luck with everything!!
That is totally not okay. I hope you guys are reimbursed and that the electricity is back today!
That’s awful! They’d better do something to compensate for the inconvenience…since the mistake was theirs.
This same thing happened to the family of one of my students Monday night. The power was turned off in their home all night, because NStar claimed that the family had been paying the bill for another apartment.
The problem is they own their house, and it’s a single family residence. So, really?
Your groceries should be ok, considering how cold it’s been at night and that you’re a garden level condo. Otherwise, call customer service and give NStar a serious piece of your mind.
Oh no!! That sucks!!!! SEriously Nstar needs to get their crap together!! Hope last night wasn’t too bad!!
freakin n’star! I hope they get their stuff together. Good luck!
Thats awful! They should give you some free months to make up for it =)
Oh no! I hope it gets up and running again soon!
