Our closing date of the sale of our home was January *, 2023. We received a ******************* 13,2023 saying we owe them $******** for the past 7 week period. They in turn took the amount of $******** from our checking account without our authority March **,2023. I have contacted them about this matter 5 times since March **, 2023. The last two times I have spoken to **** last Monday and today April ** spoke to *****. Both these agents work in the billing ***** The first three agents told me this would be resolved by April **, 2023. The last two attempts both agents say they are working on it. This money is a necessity for us to keep up with our bills. We are seniors on pensions and depend on this money that was taken from us. I have been in contact with the purchasers and they too did their address change to reflect ****************** in November after the sale was finalized. Our account number was ************.

    In reviewing the account the customer submitted a reading for January * 2023 @ ****. Was billed to February ** *023 using the January 2023 reading as was not a scheduled reading month to ****. This produced a bill for $*******.  A hold was placed on the account to stop the funds from being withdrawn for the bank as is on Pre authorize payment. 

    Customer advised that requested a move out for January * 2023 as property sold.  No request on file and account continued to estimate until March * 2023 billed to **** and hold expired on account and total funds withdrawn on March 13 2023 for $*******.

    A request was placed on March ** 2023 to process and correct the account to the move date of January 5 2023.

    Due to subsequent customer readings that were provided for March ** 2023 @ **** and March ** 2023 @ ****- required to have the meter confirmed.  A technician was sent to the property April ** 2023 to get current reading and confirm the meter details- provided reading of ****.

    ******** has been charging me through Enbridge for two services that I did not request. I am dealing with ******** separately, however, I contacted Enbridge in the hope of avoiding additional charges. Enbridge was no help at all. They said that they had contact ******** and that the charges were authorized so Enbridge did nothing. Of course that's what ******** would say! Why would a company that is successfully defrauding me of money voluntarily decline to stop taking my money when there is no expectation from Enbridge to prove that the charges are authorized? Doesn't Enbridge owe some duty of care? In terms of a resolution, all Enbridge could offer was to a) offer to contact ******** again and b) encourage me to contact ******** again. In effect, Enbridge is facilitating and profiting from another company's fraudulent activities.

    Complaint: ********

    I am rejecting this response because:

     

    I have spoken to them on several occasions.  I spoke to one person after another.  Then, finally, I was consistently dealing with the same person.  They're pleasant enough but thus far I have not received any proof that I agree to be charged for these services (not that I have received any services of any sort).

    Unless they can prove that I agreed to these charges I'd like to get my money back.


    Sincerely,

    Enbridge Gas just provided me with a monthly invoice on March **, 2023 with a due date of March **, 2023. Legally they need to give me more time than that. Also, given that they only do 1 meter read a year (the other ** are estimates), I want to know why monthly invoices are constantly late with inappropriate and illegal due dates.

    My enbridge gas bill went from $95 a month to now $347.00. I called and complained to Enbridge Gas twice, and they say nothing they can do. Last month my bill was $250. I am hardly home, but they still charge me high rates. They are ******* me and I am not going to stand for it. This must be resolved. My bill should be not be more than $100 a month.

    We would like to report a billing issue with enbridge gas. We noticed an issue with our bill on March 7, 2022 and reported this to Enbridge immediately. Bill date Feb 4: $****** - paid $****** on Feb 15 (Reference number provided by ******* is ******)Bill date Mar 7: $****** The incorrect March Bill displays the following: Balance from the previous bill was $****** (which was paid in full on Feb 15)Payment received $***** The balance forward was $****** Plus numerous late payment charges.We called Enbridge and the customer service staff member said they used our $****** to pay another person's account and only put $***** towards my account. They told us this would be fixed immediately and we will not have to pay late charges which have not been the case. They told us the account numbers were so similar and they have been this error in the past. This seems unprofessional and presents the company as untrustworthy. April, May, June, July, Aug and now September and the issue has still not been fixed. Seven months without help. The problem is causing me lots of stress as I'm concerned this will affect my credit rating and overall status with the company. We submitted this issue to the Office of the Ombudsman at Enbridge in September 2022 but nothing has been resolved. I lost my job and I'm out of options. Please help us. $*** is a lot of money to us right now. Regards ***************************************************************

    I've been using enbridge Gas (formerly known as union gas) at my home for the last ten years. Over those ten years the bills have been, for the most part, the same (plus inflation). During the last 3 months I've been issued an $890 bill followed by a $386 bill. This is outrageous and there is nothing I can do except talk to a teller who can only apologize and offer no explanation or solution. I'm peft having to just pay outrageous bills and they just keep sending them and from what I've heard this is not an isolated event.
