Happy Holidays from CESi. 

 

As we head into 2018, we would like to remind everyone to take the time to review your billing and ensure you're not only in the proper rate classes but also being charged the correct rates. 

Every company can make mistakes. Some mistakes can be small enough to not register as a concern and some can be much much larger. Take the case of the "decimal point" error in this woman's recent bill.

Obviously, this is a case where the cost was in no way reasonable, but more often than not we can see small billing errors result in hundreds or thousands of dollars that many clients are paying without even registering as mistakes.

As our clients' audit numbers from 2017 for performance and profitability we would like to remind everyone that taking the time to review billing can be a major step in ensuring strong bottom line numbers for 2018.

Contact us for an honest, independent outlook on your current billing and contracts. You might be surprised at what is being left on the table!
