Can u dispute a BC Hydro bill?

Hey everyone!

Like the title, I want to know if it’s possible to dispute the $45 bill I received for this month.

I’ve been away from the country for 5 weeks, and the only thing running in my apartment is my refrigerator. I made sure to turn off the lights, and all appliances before leaving. So, I’m sure there’s nothing eating that much energy.

The month before that, I got hit with a $150 bill. So I was kind of glad to see what the charges would be if I wasn’t home. Safe to say that BC hydro sucks. In the summer I pay $25-$40, and that’s with the AC, fan and stove running consistently.

What gives?! Has anyone else had this experience?
