Can someone help me please. October 2017 moved into house. I gave reading. Npower estimate bills until March 2018. I gave reading. They say I've used £2069.00 electric. I have a normal 4 bed detached house. Me and 3 children. General domestic appliances.

    You need to provide more details. Are you saying that you gave a meter reading after 6 months and you then got a bill for £2000. What was the reading you took when you moved in and then 6 months later. Why are you only doing something about this 2 years later. How is your home heated i.e. do you have gas as well.

    During the period Oct 17 -March 18 you would have been on nPower's Standard  (ie expensive) tariff.
    As Stewie asks - why raise the problem now - you can't do anything about it.
    Never pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill
