The attorneys can review your online account and monthly statements for the applicable time period to see if you paid too much and to determine whether you could have a case against the gas supplier.

If filed and successful, a class action could help Minnesota residents recover the difference between what they paid for gas service and what they should have paid had the appropriate rates been applied. It could also force Xcel Energy to comply with certain requirements to ensure its customers are appropriately billed in the future.
