There really was nothing we could do except split the bill evenly among the group, and keep the thermostat at 72 degrees or lower when the house was empty. I was not happy at all. Since then I have not lived with other people where we split the electric or gas bills.
Maybe you should consider living alone in the future.

i hear you. i had the same thing happen (electric, phone, cable, food, etc). i was never around the apartment much anyways. but, we still split everything. what pissed me off the most is the food situation. we would split the cost of groceries, but i would not see much of the food.
living alone is so much better.
