hmmm...seems questionable as a hot deal, but if it is you east coasters can have it. at least, we still have frys out here in the west.
I don't want ConEd paying out zillions of dollars for something that wasn't their fault to start with anyway. Let Ohio pay for my spoiled steaks, but I don't want my electric bill going up as a result.
Now that's funny coming from a Portlander. Enjoy your last 2 weeks of sun before the next 9 months of rain hits.Originally posted by: RossMANand better weather (not as humid)

Firstly, there is no harm to file this claim. ConEd won't come to your house with wire snippers and cut your electricity if you filed this report. I'm not filing for the full $150, I'm only claiming what I had in the fridge that got spoiled. If they don't pay up, it's not the end of the world. Secondly, at least in NYC, where the electricity market is DEREGULATED, you may choose another energy supplier if ConEd decides to increase the rates.I don't want ConEd paying out zillions of dollars for something that wasn't their fault to start with anyway.

If you really want to save money and have central AC, check out <a class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.coned.com/cool" target=blank>http://www.coned.com/cool</A> Apparently, they come and install a new thermostat that you can control over the internet (for free) and give you $25 back on your bill. The only thing is that during heavy load periods they can automatically change your settings. But, you can manually override any changes they make. I signed up about 3 weeks ago but haven't heard anything from them yet. If anyone else has this already, gimme a pm and let me know how it is...
I'm just curious why you think ConEd should be liable for your spoiled food?
Long story short, the governement needs to slap the nation's utility companies in line and make them pay for their mess.
