Estimated Bills
Although we try to read your gas meter every month, there are times when we simply cannot. We may not be able to access it if there is no one at your home to let us in. Weather conditions sometimes make it unsafe for meter readers to do their job. And meters do occasionally malfunction, making an accurate reading impossible.
When your meter is not actually read, you will receive an estimated bill. The estimate is based on weather trends and how much energy you have used in the past. When we are unable to get an actual meter reading, you will see the word "estimated" printed next to the meter reading on your bill.
Estimates can be avoided if you send us a reading that you have taken yourself. Here are two ways to help prevent an estimated bill.
Call us with your meter reading at 1-800-555-1991. The best time to call is one day before your scheduled meter-reading day. (Your meter-reading date appears on page one of your Newtown Gas Company bill.)
Go to our Web site at www.newtowngasco.com/meter to send us your meter reading.
Send your reading at least one day before your scheduled meter-reading day.
If you use either of these two methods to provide us with your reading, you will see the words "customer reading" next to the reading on your bill. If your meter readings have been estimated for four straight months, you must call us with your meter reading.
