Claiming compo after being hassled for an energy debt you obviously didn’t owe?
After setting debt collectors after me, the energy firm soon admitted the debt wasn’t mine, & didn’t even relate to the property I’d been living in.

1000's of EDF customers overcharged for gas?
Checking my bills since I joined EDF I noticed they have been miscalculating my kwh gas usage. I have a meter which was replaced in 2018 and so the meter readings are given in cu.m.
