    Default Xcel randomly just showed up to replace gas meter

    Think this is anything to worry about? I might be paranoid but I think it is a little weird that they show up on a Saturday morning to replace my meter. They said it wasn't transmitting correctly but my bill hasnt changed at all. Thoughts?

    If I'm ever at a party and the cops come to arrest people. Ill blindfold myself, throw the ball gag in, handcuff my hands, and hide in a closet. Police never arrest hostages!

    They run shift so someone is allways working in case of emergency. Busy work happens when they don't have emergencies so the saturday thing doesn't surprise me. Your bill not fluctuating would indicate a problem which goes along with their story. They'll bill you based on the previous month, after about 3 months of not moving it red flags for maintenance.

    I had an issue several years ago with the gas meter guys where weapons were pointed on either side.

    They are supposed to replace them every 10 years, but often don't until they can't get a reading on the truck that drives up and down the street.



    Or it could be the NSAOMGCIAFBIWTF placing a new surveillance system in your house.

    Nothing to worry. It was probably working alright during your last billing period, and something went wrong just a few days ago.
