Paid your bills today, Water $100.16 there was a 20.00 fee for the service activation. Gas was $50.19 and Electric was $63.15. $2.00 fee to pay the bills. Total of all three bills was $215.50.

Pagué sus cuentas hoy.Aqua $100.16 Hubo una tasa de 20 dólares para el servicio activado.Gas fue de $ 50.19 And Eléctrico $63.15. Tasa de $2.00 para pagar las facturas.Total de los tres proyectos de ley fue de $215.50

I had a hard time with the service "fee" for turning his water on. I could not seem to get it to translate correctly. I don't think he remembered about that charge, so I am trying to explain why his water was so high. He left the bills in his truck which is at the mechanics so when he asked me to pay them he was not sure how much they were exactly.Which is how I got stuck paying them since his English is so bad =(

I am sure my translation is pretty bad any help would be great! =)

It confused me, so it may him also. Make sure that you clarify that his water bill was $80.16 and a $20 activation fee was added to make the water bill total $100.16. Your description doesn't make that clear. Better to say that the total of all 3 bills plus fees =$215.50.
