ESCO, Con Ed and your monthly Utility Bill. Are you paying too much?
Did you know that in 2016 the Town signed up every single resident through negative consent(IE if you don't specifically say no, you are enrolled) in an ESCO for delivery of your electricity supply? Did you know it could be currently costing you between $10-$50 a month in extra utility costs if you didn't opt out?
Did you know that if you didn't op out, for the last 15 months you have been paying more in your coned bill as a result? While there were modest savings the first few months, lately the ESCO supply rate is much higher.
If you want to opt out, just call Con Ed and ask them to.
Want to check if you are enrolled? Want to know how much more this additional service is costing you? Log into Coned.com, click manage my account, scroll down and click manage my account again, and then click the drop down for "Comparison Rates" under Energy Supplier. If it says CCA-Constellation under supplier, you are enrolled.
