Returned Mail/Notice Concerns?:

Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): The initial response to my complaint indicates I received a credit for $37.09 on my following bill, however, I am not seeing that this credit exists. Also, I received a bill from Advanced Disposal indicating the new amount to pay. I paid that amount and despite this credit, I am still getting charged for a higher level of service than I actually received.

Staff Comments: Response from Advanced Disposal- RDU should have paid the Q1 billing in full in the amount of $294.60.  They paid $257.51 leaving a balance due of $37.09 which was sent to the city for collection.  The RDU recieved the service level credit on the Q2 billing. This amount is owed.
