24 billion??? Are You Crazy?

Did you hear about this in the news? When I seen it on my television news, I knew I had to search the Internet and discuss this crazy electric bill that several electric customers in Weatherford, Texas received recently.


WEATHERFORD, Texas -- Perhaps his $24 billion electric bill will teach Richard Redden to turn down the thermostat a bit.

Redden and more than 1,300 Weatherford utility customers this week received billion-dollar electric bills marked as late notices. The mega-charges were attributed to a printing error.

Yep, you read that correctly. Individual customers were billed over 24 billion dollars on a single bill. Now that is what I call a huge bill. Redden commented on the billing by saying,

``I know they raised the rates on kilowatt hours a little bit,'' Redden said. ``I guess we shouldn't have run the heater quite so much this month.''

I am with him on turning the heat down, but man that is huge kilowatt rates.

Many banks and credit debt companies which have piled up their stocks are expanding their personal and commercial services. On individual level, student loan services are being offered at nominal interest rates. While commercially, banks have really queued up to sell out the merchant accounts combined with a merchant card. Merchant account lets you accept the online payment through credit cards. Such services can now easily be availed through online bank.
