many, many people have had some success in approaching companies and literally negotiating down their bills!!!
Our friend Martta had a $13,000 hospital bill. She called them, was very firm with them and got them to cut thousands off of the bill.
I personally have never done that, but, like I said, I know people who have.
So, I would research this a bit...and find out if there is some way to grab more authority over these issues and these bills.
Just did a quick Google search on "how to negotiate down a utility bill"
and articles do come up, if folks want to look into this:
as an example...
