Npower Bill

When i moved in to my flat with my girlfriend, in June 2013. I decided to go with EDF for my electric. Paid every bill, gave my meter readings & i now have received an Occupier bill from Npower for the 12 months to June.

Not only that, but i now have discovered i had two MPAN numbers for the same meter. One of which was transferred to EDF, the other stayed with Npower for some unknown reason.

EDF have voided my contract because, the wrong meter type was given, when the contract was set up. They have refunded my payments, and are sending me back to Npower.

Phoned the Npower got transferred to the Occupier department (after a 44 minute wait), and was told it was all my fault, by the most sanctimonious bloke i have ever spoken too.

I dont know what to do.

    sounds like you have an e7 meter, pay what you owe then transfer.
    Don't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.
