We had the huge cold snap in December (several days near 0°F). This caused a huge spike in my heating costs. I expect it was the same for many.

That's one of the causes, but it doesn't (to me) explain a heating bill over $300. That's what I would expect to heat an entire house.

To me, this situation only makes sense if there's an insulation issue (which there is). In my opinion, these excessive bills need to be covered in part my my landlord, it's his responsibility to insulate this building and the units in it.

Our bill from the cold snap was high but our gas bill from this past month is two hundred dollars more. I see it’s not just us

I'm sorry to hear it. If I had the time and energy I'd want to organize some kind of citizens group to complain to BGE. I'd join something like that but I can't currently create it.
