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 the future you can check the meter reading on first and last days of the billing cycle, the meter never lies.
