    Man, the wife and I decided to live for 8 mths in Forest Lake (near Ipswich) and we could not believe how cheap everything was there, (except cars).
    Try Sydney my friend, registration is twice the price of QLD, rent is about 40% cheaper in QLD, Insurance etc. We loved the roads! (tolls in QLD are about 75% less)

    I lived about 20 minutes away from Ipswich - in Suffolk, England. Not sure that it had an effect on local Dumaguete electricity pricing though.

    Strange? Most Ippy "Home Dealers" I knew in the Buy-Sell game all took their cars to Sydney to sell as they made good profits that way, oh, and I had to drive around the Tolls so I could afford to pay my electricity bills... :blackeye: If I go back I plan to go out to far Western QLD to avail even cheaper Rents and (hopefully) Electricity (under an alias this time around.) :biggrin:

    Forget all about the rubbish they say on the power bill. The cost of electricity here in Dumaguete and Negros Oriental is among the highest in this country. Sad to say, their complex way of charging the billing is authorized by law called EPIRA law. The cost floats from 9 to 11 php per kw-hr dependent on the forex of the peso to the US Dollar.

    As a point of reference:
    It's about P9 per kw-hr in Manila for residential customers in February. Of that amount, the generation charge is P4.32 per KW-hr or close to 50%.

    February electricity rates up by P0.92 per kWh — Meralco

    I wonder how much of the number mentioned above is the generation charge?

    Don't feel bad, in Dec my Noreco bill was 20,000 pesos (we had a lot of company), in Jan it was only just 13,000 pesos. When I was in the states I never had an electric bill that big.

    HORY SHYTE! :jawdrop:

    I would be spewing here if our Bill hit 3000 pesos! :bucktooth: Thankfully it hovers around 1800/2000 pesos each month. :speechless:

    In Australia my quarterly Bill was normally around $1,400 AUD. I LOVE it here with what basically equates to a $150 AUD Bill for 3 months! :smile:
