I'm sitting here wondering why ONG doesn't just read the meter and charge us for the amount used? To me that makes sense because we would pay for the amount used-not the amount the neighbor used or businesses. Unless they are making us pay for something I'm not aware of...
I copied this off of the Oklahoman website: "ONG is not only charging everyone the same flat fee whether they live in a mansion or a studio apartment, but they are also trying to lock them into a lifetime agreement of which the only way out is to pay a ransom.
So if you do have natural gas and are heating only with an insert, you still get stuck. The guy with the $50,000 home with 1200 SF will pay the same blackmail rate of $687.50 as the guy in the $500,000 home with 3,500 SF. How will this affect the poor? Will they get a break?
