Have you checked the meter reading is correct? Our Gas company recently sent us a £1500 bill but it turned out they had put next doors meter reading in instead of ours!

mrscmr

yes lizzie ... they came and read the meter which is why this new dd change has been made. but the gas reading is fine.... i rather worried :=(

lizzie_dripping

That's a bit of a !!!! then.

Check it against the meter just to make double sure though, even though they have taken a reading.

mrscmr

oh im laughing now... ok so our gas will be 135 per month and electric 195 per month ha ha hahahahahahahahhahahahha

instead of 75 and 45 ... cos they been undercharging us... so now i have to look at what we are using... just another thing to add to my list of everthing..... :-(
