The citizens of Onslow County NC demand, in depth, detailed answers as to why we have incurred a charge that has nearly doubled our electric bills in the months of January and/or February. We believe due to the warm winter this year that Jones Onslow EMC has found a way to make us pay for using LESS energy than we normally would have done this winter. We are requesting an investigation into what this,WPTA = Wholesale Power Tier Adjustment charge is connected to, and want detailed explanations to where this money is going DOWN TO EVERY LAST CENT! These citizens are prepared to form ranks, to take this problem to the next level if we feel we are not getting full co-operation from Jones Onslow EMC staff and representatives.

I am honestly overwhelmed by how many neighbors have come forward to share their frustration. This momentum belongs entirely to you because I never imagined so many people would speak up at once. It is clear we are not alone in wanting real answers about these bills.

I requested an audit and even during my audit. The increase in “usage” couldn’t be explained.

Living on fixed incomes makes the raises in electric bills even more difficult to pay.. something has to be done about the increased costs handed out by joemc

I moved from MI to NC this summer. My heat stays on 65. I want to know why my rate is so high and the bill is not broken down to show price per kwh.

JOEMC needs to be held accountable. They charge rates that have doubled my electricity bills.

they need to have the STATES ATTORNEYS GENERALS OFFICE to investigate possible fraud . They have very few laws & limitations placed on them being a private cost sharing company.
