Npower hell!
Hi, I managed (after a two month hell of ever altering amounts that I owed) to escape npower's clutches - in March 2013. I received a 'final energy bill' on 17/04/13 and duly paid the £4.71 owed. Imagine my surprise to receive another 'final energy bill' on 10/03/14 - yup, almost one year later - for £236.50. I'd just…

Negative credit ratings by way of 'Association'
I had an electricity account with one of the 'big 6' energy providers until I decided to switch. I was a few days late in paying their final bill to which they sent me a demand letter & referred the matter to debt collectors. They also placed a negative rating on my credit score. The account was in my name only but they…

I had one of the faulty Scottish Hydro meters
Hi, I'm wondering if someone can help me - it was discovered last year (before SH admitted to it) that I had one of the faulty dual rate meters.
