Reply to comment by Atrocious_1 in PPL electric “accidentally” took a 3 month advance on automatic payments today by theREALPLM

Unless I'm mistaken, PUC is a completely separate regulatory body, I'm not sure why you would say they're investigating themselves.

I mean, ok, sure, I guess you can take things at face value and ignore the incestuous nature between regulatory bodies and the organizations they oversee

You want to give any examples of what you mean in the case of the PUC? I'm not coming at you, I just think it's lazy and cynical to automatically dismiss something unless you have evidence to back it up. Admittedly I don't know much about the PUC so if there really is an example of a conflict of interest in action I'd be interested in knowing.

Specific examples of PPL and the PUC, no. However there's been multiple historic examples, plus the fact that when the rate increases were first proposed thousands of citizens, businesses, and legislators wrote in saying this would be detrimental and the PUC basically told all of us "too bad lol"
