      ***** has overbilled me for utilities for multiple months. I phoned them 3 times (8/25, 9/13, 9/27) and I have emailed them photos of my meter (8/25, 9/2, 9/13). I get the same run around every time I phone ... someone is going to check it ... someone is going to be back in touch ... etc., etc. Nothing gets fixed and my apartment complex wants me to pay the incorrectly billed amounts and say it is up to me to get their contractor to correct the incorrect billings. meter fixed 12-Jun-23 meter reading on bill 30-Jun-23 420 meter reading on bill 31-Jul-23 **** meter reading on bill 31-Aug-23 **** photo of meter attached 15-Aug-23 *** photo of meter 22-Aug-23 353 photo of meter attached 2-Sep-23 822 photo of meter 13-Sep-23 1245 Have additional photos but files are too large.

      How much $$ are kicked back to the apartment owners?I don't blame them for wanting to money, but these fees are found out after application, and should be transparent upfront with every application. , and presented to tenants up front when applying for any apartment complex. Maybe one day a legislature will make this so. Of course the benefits you provide are great for Landlords, minimizing their need to deal with payments for all these sorts of things, but Storm sewer fees? Really. THIS BUSINESS IS NOT BBB ACCREDITED. Wonder why.

      The property receives a bill for water, sewer, stormwater, trash for the entire property that they pay ahead of time. They have hired us to break down the cost of the services and bill each unit so they know what to collect in order to recoup the costs. We perform quarterly rate reviews to ensure residents are being accurately billed. These fees should've also been presented to you upon signing your lease. Please call us directly at ************ if you have any questions about your first bill and we'll be happy to assist or review.Also, we were formerly BBB accredited but any reputable business can be BBB accredited if they pay a regular fee to BBB. We eventually did not find it necessary to continue to pay for these bragging rights but understand if other companies prefer to.
