You may be paying for estimated utility usage on your SP Services bill every other month — but you can avoid it by submitting your actual meter readings yourself.
KEY POINTS
IN SIMPLE TERMS
SP Services only reads your electricity, gas, and water meters once every two months. On the months they don't read your meter, they guess how much you used based on past bills, and charge you for that estimate. You can stop this by telling SP Services your actual meter readings yourself, which takes just a few minutes.
