Welcome to Newport. Check with your doorman about how long the apartment has been vacant. PSEG charges everything from previous bill generation to the new tenant moving in. Call PSEG and explain them everything. They will have it adjusted in the next month's bill. Best way is to insulate your windows by yourself. Cold air leakage problem is there in every building of Newport. I have stayed in few of them and even the handyman is helpless. Moreover if you stay in those buildings other than the river front, all of them have outdated heating units which adds to the electricity consumption generating huge bills.

On a lighter note, I believe PSEG and Newport have tied up to loot us with huge electricity bills.
