Our water meter is read by the same person at the same time.

Since never a single month goes by without a reading, your theory of
estimated billing caused by a missed reading should not apply.

I've never heard of a power company that would give a crap about the
water meter. Is this the same utility? Very unusual in my experience,
but anything is possible.

This is likely a contract meter-reading service I'd guess given that.
Altho I've not seen that before, either, seems at least plausible.

Wasn't able to determine who the utility supplier is from previous
postings--I thought he said was in CT; the link to the pdf on the rates
was a Niagara Mohawk pub though who afaik, are limited to NY. So, can't
see whether there is a combined utility in the area or not unless HG
tells us.
