Finally, it's pretty scary that a small storm can do this, and how long it takes for people to have power, elderly people , sick people need power

They take money and raised our rate but the money went into their pocket.

That's what I keep saying. Now they're going to raise the rate to pay for the repairs from this hurricane. They should have taken care of this a long time ago.!

What did Centerpoint do wrong? Thousands of crews out there repairing damage over one of the biggest cities in the country, and you’re all whining.

@@user-ln7of9gs4sthat's why nobody is requesting that the field men are investigated we want the actual company and the higher ups investigated..... DUH.... they raised rates so much one year that my tiny little 2 bedroom apartment (no lights used in the daytime) costed 400$ a month. They are criminals all of them.

I couldn't agree more I've had family with me for 6 days and as much as a love them...they need to go home. This is ridiculous!!! These are issues that should have been taken care of immediately after the freeze or Harvey. Instead our good governor is running around siging laws that tell a woman what to do with her body 😡 meanwhile people are dying

⁠@@user-ln7of9gs4seven if you don’t use that much electricity, majority of the bill is Centerpoint fees. I consistently use 300-400 kW per month coming out to $130 a month and over 50% of my bill is Centerpoint charges which is ridiculous.
