Need some experienced eyes on a Memphis Light Gas & Water billing issue. Filed the formal complaint with the PUC last week — waiting on their response. The utility''s position is that estimated reads are within tolerance, but the tariff language doesn''t support that.
Nice find. I''ve started using the AAUBA audit workbook to cross-reference these calculations and it saves a ton of time.

Nice find. I''ve started using a Python script I wrote to cross-reference these calculations and it saves a ton of time.
Good thread. I want to emphasize what Carl B said about tariff interpretation. This comes up frequently and the correct approach is to always verify against the published tariff, never assume the bill is right.
