DTE Letters Implying Shut-Off in 30 Days
Are Nothing New and Can Be Ignored
Letters have been sent since January 2014
DTE does not shut off your electricity if you do not respond to this letter.
It is an intimidation tactic that will only be successful if you cave in.
Since January 2014, DTE has sent out a letter
to some people who have meters that are locked or behind a gate. There
is no discernible rhyme or reason to who they send it to. Recently, DTE
has begun sending this letter out again.. In this "30-day" letter, DTE cites
MPSC Rule 460.167, tells the recipient that DTE has the right to shut
off their electricity if they do not allow the installation of the smart
meter, and implies that the recipient that they must respond within 30 days to avoid shut-off. DTE has been sending these letters out since January 2014. No one has ever had their electricity shut off because they received this letter. Here is an example of this letter.
We have recommend that you not respond to this letter. Do not fan the flames.
