postheadericon LG&E Rate Increase

How customers can register a complaint

An article in the Courier-Journal announced that LG&E wants to change the way it bills customers for gas and electric.  Instead of charging by the amount of gas a home uses, LG&E wants to charge a higher flat fee rate of $26.53 to deliver gas to its customers.  In addition, LG&E wants to triple its electric residential customer charge from $5.00 to $15.00.

Our office has received numerous calls from constituents wanting to know how to register a complaint against LG&E’s proposed rate changes.  Complaints can be sent to the Kentucky Public Service Commission and to the Attorney General.  Please reference “Case Number 2009-00549 in your correspondence so it will be properly recorded with the correct case.

The Public Service Commission and Attorney General prefer to receive written letters; however, I have included all means of registering a complaint for your convenience.
