Obviously they should go up, and go up substantially.
- Electrical bills and fuel bills are based on fuel cost. This is a depleting resource and should cost more as it disappears. In addition the cost of global impact and pollution created by the extraction, processing and use of fuels is never factored in to present fuel related utility bills. Higher cost would reduce fuel use and subsequently pollution related problems.
- Water bills are generally so low as to be almost a free ride for consumers. The cost of water treatment is gong up as the supply of pure water is going down. The infrastructure for water transmission (pipes and such) is wearing out and must be repaired or replaced. All of these factors indicate that substantial increases in charges are required.

How can you build and protect your credit rating?
You can build your rating by making sure you pay bills on time. Unfortunately, if you don't have a bank/building society account or credit/store cards or pay utility bills, it is virtually impossible to build a credit rating. Having said that, if you pay utility bills, even on prepayment meters, your details are "logged" with credit reference agencies and you have a rating. If you fall behind with payments it can take up to 7 years to repair the "bad" rating as that is how far back the complete record goes.
How long do you need to keep old utility bills?
Until they are paid. There isn't really much reason to keep them, unless there are some items that can be deducted from your income taxes. For example, a couple of years ago, the IRS finally gave up a long series of court battles and allowed citizens to deduct an illegal telephone excise tax. The catch was, you had to have copies of your phone bills to calculate the refund. If you had the old bills (for three years back) you could take the deduction. So in SOME RARE cases, it MAY be USEFUL to keep three years of old utility bills. But there is no requirement to do so.
