national grid
« on: February 26, 2015, 01:01:53 PM »
Hi there

after moving out of an apprt in Brooklyn i closed my acc with national grid, and got email confirmation
2 months later i got a bill for 3000$ eventually was reduced to 1500 $ without any request

my monthly bill never went higher than 40-50$

Ive been trying to dispute for 3-4 years and its not resolved and its still showing on my credit score

whats the best way to fight it ?

TIA

could be that you actually owe this. they may have sent you all along estimated bills, go check one of your older bills

5 years ago was prob cheaper and you maybe eat more :)

It's not the point of 50 or 75
Even a 100 it's not getting 1500$!!!
