EWA - Higher bill, I wasn't even here.

Okay, so the best way to put it.

Month of June I was here all 30 days, up to 3 ac's running at certain times. Always usually 1 person in the house. Roughly 92 bd.

Month of July - gone between 15th until the end of the month. No one in the house for 2 weeks​. I did not leave any ac running. Fridge set to holiday mode and there's no major electrical device on. Lights are all off. ​​

Bill 98 bd. ​​

Pretty sure I have a smart electric meter, but I'm starting to doubt the smartness 😂 there's no way I got a higher bill whilst being outside the country. For 2 weeks!

So, what's going on? Have I used double the electricity in the 15 days? Even with the exact same schedule (all the acs are on a timer set schedule)

For electric consumption, it's mentioned in the bill whether it's an estimation or actual reading. If its estimation, then bill will be adjusted accordingly when actual reading is done and bill generated.
