    I need help with my light bill. I don't use too much gas but my electricity usage is high and I'm having difficulties paying the light bill. I'm convinced the energy companies are ripping me off because by usage and light bill goes up every time. I'm on a low income, can I get help from anywhere?

    When you say I need help with my light bill I'm assuming your mean electricity and utility bills. You mention that your energy bills keep rising. I would advise you to contact your utility company to make sure you are on the right tariff and are not being ripped off because the electricity company made a mistake.

    You should also look at your energy usage, can you make any cutbacks anywhere? You should definitely look into a Government Assistance Program called LIHEAP which helps low income families by helping them keep their home warm in winter and cool in summer.
