Dear [Utility Company], I am writing to request information regarding the recent increase in my bill amount for the month of [Month]. I have been a valued customer of your company for [number of years] and have always been satisfied with your services. However, the sudden surge in my bill has left me puzzled and concerned. Upon reviewing my monthly bills, I have noticed a substantial increase in the amount charged for various services. I want to understand the factors behind this sharp rise, as it seems unreasonable given my usage patterns have remained consistent. To help resolve this issue, I kindly request the following information: 1.

This will help me identify any discrepancies and assess the accuracy of the charges. 2. Explanation of any rate changes: If there have been any modifications to the rates or tariffs since my last billing cycle, please clarify the reasons behind these changes.

Justification for additional charges: If there are any newly added charges that are not part of the usual services, I expect a detailed explanation of what they entail and why they have been included in my bill. Transparency regarding any additional fees or surcharges is crucial for customers to comprehend their billing statements. 5. Assistance with energy-saving measures: In case the increase in my bill is indeed a result of higher energy consumption, I would appreciate any guidance or recommendations on how to reduce usage effectively.
