Retired nurse Rita George is afraid her biggest fear is coming true – that state regulators are about to close the books on their Central Maine Power Co. investigation by letting the utility off with a mild penalty and freeing it up to demand full payment on the $5,000 in unpaid bills CMP says she owes.
George is one of thousands of CMP customers in Maine who say the utility’s new billing system, launched in the fall of 2017, immediately started overcharging them by falsely inflating the amount of power usage reported on their bills. They have been waiting for an investigation by the state’s utilities regulator to vindicate them, forcing CMP to issue refunds and wipe away past-due charges.

If it begins "there's no money left", Liam Byrne-style, it wouldn't be a surprise, such is the chaotic state of affairs he is leaving behind. After more than 12 years of careful oversight which has seen the business through some difficult times, Mayfield leaves it at a precarious point in its history.
The reshuffle has not only resulted in the departure of the managing directors of both businesses – Rob Collins at Waitrose and Paula Nickolds at John Lewis – but also appears to muddy the waters on lines of responsibility for the two brands. What's worse, more than 70 senior executives are to leave the business, taking decades of knowledge and experience with them.

Fraud Is Eroding The Customer Experience
Consumers are afraid to share information with customer service reps as well as "secured" websites. ... [+] Fraud is eroding the customer experience!
It wasn't that long ago that my mother finally started using Amazon.com to make purchases. For years I suggested that she use Amazon and other online retailers like Walmart and Target to make purchases. She refused to do so. She was afraid someone would steal her credit card and other valuable information. After a little coaxing, she acquiesced and agreed to start buying from these high-profile retailers.
