But the supplier has no idea how the OP heats their property, or when they change that method...

If they are getting readings, they can easily spot it by working out the % of register use vs the expected tariff. The tricky part is the warmer seasons but its easy to see in the winter.

This could trigger contact to check.

This would be a good way to demonstrate Best Practice but it just doesn't seem to be there. I've heard it mentioned on the supply side as a service that should be put in place but I won't hold my breath.

Looking in to the Electricity Bill they are estimating and billing me for:
- 4,926 Day Enery and,
- 30,367 Units of Night Energy

i.e. 32.7 x as much consumption at night.

I may have the odd night light on but equally dont use the Kettle, Dishwasher, Oven, Washing machine etc at night. We also use Gas Central Heating.

Waste of time arguing about the ratio of day to night units. Total waste of time. Take your own readings and submit them to the supplier, put the current bill in dispute [assuming your readings support that] and wait for the corrected bill.

If you do this a couple of times, the estimates are likely to start coming out right too.
