"It is not unusual for a company to be paying 20-30% more than it should for utilities, and if you don’t know the various codes, billing procedures, and tariffs for each utility, you’re only guessing that your rates are OK.”

With ever changing rules, laws and interpretations, the utility companies in your state are profiting from your inability to keep up. They're tucking in hidden surcharges, systematically moving companies into higher pricing categories and making fundamental billing errors that erode your bottom line.

When was the last time your performed a comprehensive self audit on your utility bills to see if you're overpaying or being deceived? If you haven't had your bills reviewed in the past three months you could be hemorrhaging $50,000 or more monthly.

Why? Three big reasons:

Reason #1…The utility companies are far from perfect. They make mistakes.

Recently, one of the largest utility companies in the US performed a rate analysis for a business customer. The utility showed a modest savings but asked the customer to sign a disclaimer.

Fortunately, the business customer called in Auditek to take a second look and offer assistance. Our audit produced a whopping $50,000 savings (and the call prevented the CFO from getting fired). Had the business agreed to sign the utility's disclaimer, they would have forfeited the $50,000 that Auditek found.

Reason #2…Utility rules and regulations are complex, confusing, and often contradictory.

Utilities profit in environments of chaos. As far as the utilities are concerned, the less someone is able to decipher the rules of the game, the better. For instance, you might be given an already confusing set of different rate schedules and classifications. Then, for every rate, you may have 5 to 10 different subrates, and then another 5 to 10 different subrates within those subrates, and on and on.

Before long, you find yourself lost in a legislative labyrinth of dead ends, trapdoors and legal jargon. And since you're so involved in the daily operations of your company, it's impossible to tell north from south.

That's why it's a smart move to bring in a trained outsider to look at your expenses with an objective, experienced pair of eyes. With thousands of audits under its belt and constant research on ways to lower your utility bills, Auditek makes sure you use these regulations and rules to your advantage.

Reason#3…As utility companies downsize they have fewer people on staff to help you resolve even simple billing issues.

You're left waiting on the phone for hours or sent to their web site to download forms and send emails to the appropriate people. Since you're saddled with the burden of proving you've been overcharged or put into the wrong rate category, you're forced to fill out reams of paperwork and documentation.

The utility company's already bare resolution department adds your complaints or query to the huge stack of other companies who feel they may be paying too much. You lose valuable time going back and forth trying to resolve the problem when you should be doing other things.

Auditek fights for you. If we find overcharges, unwarranted surcharges and potential billing errors, we'll do whatever it takes to secure your refunds and to make sure you're protected from future utility bill abuse.
