      November of 2022, Carroll County (MD) licensing and permits released an electronic service request to BGE to finish tying in service line for a new electrical panel that was placed in the home. BGE has still as of March 2024 not been out to complete their work. I have made multiple attempts to contact them with 2-3 hour waits, I have also had Carroll County Government resubmit the request. My contractor has also tried to contact BGE. This is unacceptable and is preventing from me backing have to place the house on the market.

      BGE has been overcharging me for electricity for the past 4 months. My meter settings for the first 3 months of the year have not changed, but my energy use (per BGE) has almost tripled. I called the company and was on hold for 2 hours and then hung up on. I called back and was on hold for another 1.5 hours before I could speak to a customer service agent who told me that this winter was colder than last winter so that is why my heat went up. Ridiculous! I've been in the house for 5 years, with the same settings, and I even use less because I commute to work once a week now (compared to full time work from home for the past 4 years). I was also told that someone would call me back to arrange for my meter to be checked. It's almost 4 weeks and I've not received a cal or email (which I specifically asked for). This company is gouging customers and it should be stopped. I am currently looking into switching to solar power but in the meantime, my bills are skyrocketing and I don't have the means to continue paying for the overcharges that the company doesn't seem to want to address. I wish someone would advocate for us as consumers since we have few other choices for energy suppliers in my area.
