      Hi on October 18,2023 I had the gas turned on @ ****************************************************************. October 20, 2023 I notice a loud gas smell, actually It was so loud my neighbors smelled it as well. I called Spire and someone came out on October 27,2023 the gentleman/technician stated something about gas leak or trap in the line and he asked if I had an electric or gas water heater and I stated electric he went outside and double check to make sure I did have an electric water heater. He stated the problem was fixed. I was waiting for a bill to come in the mail but decided to go ahead and set up an account online. My bill was/is $257.00. Winter has not started yet. Im not sure if I had a leak or what but something is wrong. Called and complained about my bill on November 16,2023. Spire sent a tech out again on November 17, 2023. This tech said nothing so I'm still not sure why the gas bill is so high. I thought maybe it could be a connection fee, but my bill does not reflect that.

      Without notice, Spire came to my home to swap out the meter (no idea why). Left a hang tag on my front door that was only found this morning when we got up without heat, hot water or gas to the stove. It was in the low 30's last night and the house was in the mid 50's this morning. After calling this morning, I was told a technician would be out today to relight the pilot lights on the furnace and water heater and turn the gas on at the meter so we can cook. So here I sit, in the afternoon, at home in a cold house, waiting for a technician. I should be at work. I should be warm. WTF is wrong with this company? Their action should be criminal. This is not a billing issue.
