Monthly Metering:
Customers dislike to have estimated meter readings, and
further understand that customers are loathe to provide
anything for free or that they feel is the utility’s natural
responsibility. Not only does this acts as a point of
differentiation from the competition but also eliminate
customer confusion about the critical part of the billing
process.
