Eon issue
Anyone know of any advice for me. Changed from eon last January. Turned out that they had the wrong meter details for me and all readings I'd sent had been changed to estimates for the 16 months I was with them. They are sorting it but 8 months down the line I'm none the wiser and no final bill. They keep fobbing me off…

There was a new boiler fitted about 18 months ago along with a Hive Wall Thermostat / Controller. Having done the comparison, looks like we can get cheaper fuel from another supplier. I have heard that the…

Ecotricity vs National Database
I moved house in January and gave various meter reference numbers to my new supplier, Ecotricity, as they couldn't find me on the national database. Worryingly, I was told that my number had been assigned to the house two doors up, but was now OK (in January). I'm trying to swap from Ecotricity as I find them expensive,…

NPower Estimated Bill
Long story short; I've received a big bill from NPower, following moving out of an apartment. I don't dispute I owe them a significant amount of it, however it is based on estimated readings as I did not take them when I lived there. NPower advise that they 'overestimate' when they are not given meter readings. Do I have…

Moved house - energy supplier already has my personal details from letting agent
Bit of an odd one... I moved house recently, renting.
