Poll: Have you felt the impact of electricity price increases?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Consumer NZ have revealed their latest annual energy survey, and found that 11% of consumers have had to cut back on their heating, and 20% of people have been struggling to pay their power bill in the past year.
