As a single mother living paycheck to paycheck this is very stressful! How do I decide whether to have power and heat, or feed my kids? I believe I should have an option in who I choose for my energy. Most people cannot afford these increases!

We can't afford to feed our kids when our bill DOUBLES! Something has to change. Northwestern energy's monopoly is killing montana's middle class.

Our bill doubled in one month. This should not be allowed.

My bill jumped over 250 dollars. I am a disabled man with children to feed. I even asked for them to come out ask physicalaly check my meter. Nobody come out. This is not right. What ever happened to them having to pay us back those millions of dollars that the courts ordered them to do.

Please regulate the utilities to a reasonable rate, so people can expand their lives, and not live under constant command of others.

This is insane and archaic, let them pay their property taxes like EVERYONE else does and like ALL other businesses do.

These energy bills are ridiculous and a real burden to evetyone....famies and people on fixed incomes. Why are NWE rates so much higher than a co-op energy company, like Vigilente? Why does NWE have shares and shareholders.....shouldn't it be a public utility with lower rates. Why can we not switch to a cheaper company? Did NEE really need to build such a fancy building and charge us ratepayers???

I moved from a very small one bedroom house to a house with a roommate and my bill, despite not actually being in the house for at least 10 days of the billing cycle, was still $153!! It's outrageous when you consider how much power MT generates in just our waterways alone!

I believe that their constant hikes in rates is for nothing other than their greed the owners are definitely not out to help anyone if anything anyone currently making decision should be relieved of that position.

If you are in an emergency situation then you may need to reach out to whatever help or charities are available. Try whatever programs, ministerial alliances... Anyone who can help. Sorry to see your family struggling.

It's not a localized issue as NWE is trying to claim.

It doesn't even need to come out of his bonus when the company claims profits of over 100 million per year.
