The house may be yours, but if the bill is contractually obligated to be paid by your daughter, and the address she lists for electrical service is yours, the electric company can shut the power for non-payment of the bill to the address listed. Best for you to change the party resposible on the contract to your name and you pay the bill. Charge your daughter 50% of the bill each payday to cover the usage.

AnswerYes, if the address that you have service at now is the same as the address that your 31-year old daughter owes a bill for. They cannot, however, shut the electricy off at YOUR house just because your daughter diddn't pay the bill at HER separate address.

Can an electric company truly charge you a high bill like 400.00 on an electric bill?

If your house has electric heat and especially if you have an electric furnace then your bill could well reach 400 dollars. It is probably the same scenario in warm parts of the country where the air conditioning is continuously on. The electric company only charges you for the amount used. If you think that your bill is unjust call the company up and get them to check the meter. Of course they can. You use the electricity and you have to pay for it. I don't understand why this would even be a legitimate question.
