Give Bobby a call, tell him that you would like to Opt Out of the Smart Meter. I am regularly sharing information with him and he is very nice and professional. But he needs to hear from more people on this topic. Free free to let him know James Calfee sent you. Bobby’s work number is: (850) 505-5006

I have seizures and really bad headaches.

So that is additional 480.00/yr. So we have to PAY a supposedly member-owned company for this in addition to actual useage bill.

Would appreciate any success or failure stories so that I can navigate my way through this mess and quickly get this thing removed.

Has anyone tried to force Gulf Power to allow opt out program?

California PUC made it requirement years ago to allow an opt-out thay cant exceed $75 one time charge and cant’s exceed $10/month in fees.

Please contact me 3212161070 leave a mssg i will return your call

Iv been fighting having this meter on

When i called today spoke to a mgr..she disclaimed my claims. When i asked her to mail me proof she said i had to go thru tje non meter dpt

When i asked to be transferred to them..,she said that dpt doesnt exist and there was no one to talk to

Basically…it was pay them their blood monies……to keep my electricity on

Or have the unsafe unlawful meter on

Or refuse to pay and have my electric shut off

Im dusabled in a wheelchair

If my electric is shut off..so is my water

They are hitlers out for blood and must be stopped

They’re constructing a smart grid that will make it easier for you or me to call our homes on our cell phones and turn down our air conditioner on a hot afternoon. But that may well mean that a hacker in Shanghai can do the same thing with his cell phone, or worse. The so-called smart grid that is as vulnerable as what we’ve got is not smart at all. It’s a really, really stupid grid.” — former Director of the C.I.A., Robert James Woolsey, Jr.

The D.N.A. in living cells recognizes electromagnetic fields at very low levels of exposure [not covered by current outdated laws]; and produces a biochemical stress response. The scientific evidence tells us that our safety standards are inadequate, and that we must protect ourselves from exposure to E.M.F. due to power lines, cells phones and the like, or risk the known consequences. The science is very strong and we should sit up and pay attention.”

The actual frequency of the phenomena is influenced by the devices that are plugged into the customer’s power. Some houses are much worse than others, and this observation has been confirmed by PG&E installers that have talked to us.”
