Citizens Utility Board
Citizens Utility Board • Fighting for Illinois utility customers since 1984. We tweet in English and Spanish at @CUBEspanol. Since its inception in 1984, the Citizens Utility Board has been blocking rate hikes and fighting for consumer protections and better service from the state’s investor-owned electric, gas and telephone companies. CUB is Illinois’ leading nonprofit utility watchdog group. Created by the Illinois Legislature, CUB opened its doors in 1984 to represent the interests of residential and small-business utility customers. Since then, CUB has saved consumers more than $20 billion by helping to block rate hikes and secure refunds. For more information, call CUB’s Consumer Hotline, at 1-800-669-5556, or visit CUB’s award-winning website, www.CitizensUtilityBoard.org
