Contact Energy has increased prices without Notice? is Contact Energy ripping us off??
Has anyone experienced this problem? I received a Contact Energy bill yesterday and found that my 22% discount has disappeared I called them and they told me that this is a government directive and that they sent me a letter to this effect which they did not. I am now shopping around to look at other service providers and would like to know how much are other power companies charging. I am currently being charged by Contact Fixed daily charge of 30 cents per day and all day Economy low uers 22.40 cents per KWH , Electricity Authority Levy 0.13 cents per kwh and a prompt payment discount of 1%
