Backcharge reads your electric and gas bills line by line, checks the arithmetic against the meter readings, and flags the charges that do not hold up — the ones nobody catches because nobody reads a utility bill that closely.
Built for organizations with multiple meters — manufacturers, senior living, schools, municipal authorities, and nonprofits.
Audit my last bill — free No card. Connecting takes one sign-in, read-only.Your credentials never reach us. Sign-in happens on a page hosted by our data provider — we never see, store or transmit your utility password.
Every bill is validated arithmetically before any finding is raised. If the numbers we extracted do not reconcile against the bill's own totals, that bill is set aside rather than reported — we would rather miss a finding than send you a false one.
Pennsylvania exempts metered electricity and gas for municipal authorities, political subdivisions and charitable organizations. Exempt entities are still billed sales tax more often than you would expect.
Periods billed with charges against zero recorded consumption — usually a meter that stopped reporting while the account kept accruing.
Accounts sitting in a rate class their demand no longer fits, or hovering close enough to a kW band boundary that the schedule should be revisited.
Consecutive months billed on estimates rather than actual meter readings, which defer a true-up that eventually arrives as one large correction.
Third-party supply priced above what the utility would have charged as default supplier — a gap that persists quietly, month after month.
On one bill we tested, third-party supply ran 13% above the utility's price to compare.
