I had a smart meter installed (due to the fact that I'm insane...) and I got a massive rebate in January. My meter reader was WAY off and I doubt I'll have to pay for any electricity at all this year. Give or take, my Hydro bill is now -$1,600.
My electricity usage has gone from about $400 every two months to about $150. My old meter reader was, well, an idiot. He has a guaranteed job and a guaranteed pension that we Toronto taxpayers get to pay for! Doesn't matter if he actually looks at my hydro meter and has me sign the paper or not - he still gets paid.
At least he doesn't come to my house anymore - and THAT is worth a lot to me. That his job is gone and no-one will ever be hired in his place is worth even more.
