<prompt> Human: In august Me and 5 other guys moved into a house were renting. We have all been classic procrastinators about our utility bills and never set up payment to the electric company. About a month ago our landlord said we had to make an account with the electric company or our power would be shut off, incidentally, we received notification a bill about the same problem from the electric company without intervention from our landlord a few days before that. When our landlord contacted us he also called pepco to let them know that there was a change in residents so we the new residents needed a week to set up the account. This delayed the power shut off date by about a week. After our landlord did that we recieved another letter from pepco saying we had to go to a physical office to make an account and to call a certain phone number to make an appointment. We called them several times but never got an answer. So for around 3 weeks we have been not paying electric but we still had made an attempt to make an account. We arent keen on the idea of getting a huge electric bill but still I like free electricity. Does anyone have any experience with what I want to do now? Also sorry if that was confusing, its a very weird situation let me know if something needs clarifying.EDIT: Ok thanks guys, I guess we were being pretty naive.  <response>: Go into the office. You are not getting free electric, it will be billed to you.
