I agree Ray,
We really don't want to go there.
Trustpower recently announced an increase in the General Day rate and a slight increase in the Night Rate.
During my Electrician's apprenticeship, we were installing Nightstore heaters left-right and centre, mainly because of the cheap tariffs at the time.
I bet a lot of people will be kicking themselves now.
IMHO, it is grossly unfair to keep bumping up the cost of an essential service like an electricity supply.
Not even touching on our power problems, but, usually it is the elderly in our communities that suffer the most with these price hikes.
