I just received my final electricity bill for the old house. Due to a combination of set monthly payments and the govt. contributions I am well ahead on my payments so will be getting nearly $300 returned to me. ๐
Edit: I've also just realised I got the govt. relief payment twice. It's paid per household not per person, and I had power on at both properties with an overlap of about a month. The timing was just right for me to get the payment for both. I thought I'd lost money by being lazy/distracted and not cancelling the power at the old place earlier, turns out it was a good thing!
