Yo, check your usage now, guys:

Jenn and Patrick Eldridge also reached out to us about the issue. They own several rental properties in the Williamsport area. For some of those properties, the usage went from 0-1 kilowatts to 1100. 

"I believe five of the eight that we disputed were actually vacant properties," Jenn said. "And the usage that they were claiming that we used was not just inaccurate, but impossible."

It honestly makes me want to splurge and install one of those meters that tracks everything.

My bill literally doubled too, we live in a small 2 bedroom apartment and it went from $40ish to $80ish over one bill. I don't have any of my old paper bills, but I want to at least look at my old online statements to see what they look like. I know rates were set to go up, but literally double...? And it's not even air conditioner season yet.

Rates are one thing. This is them charging people for electric that isn't even being used.

That's what I am concerned with, I know the rate was supposed to go up. But I can't be sure they're not also charging me for electricity I'm not using, just because it seems like such a hike.
