    Have you any bills from Spark which show the meter change on 20th Nov ?  my money says the new meter had a reading of 0000.0 . Between then and now you will have had several bills each of which would show the meter readings - what are they ?

    Anyway between 20 Nov with a reading of 0000.0 and now of 06117 is 1000 units a month ie 1000 x 17.14p  that's £171.40 plus standing charges plus VAT.  The good news is that summer is here and your bills will drop (perhaps to £40 or £50 a month). Even better news if you were to get up to date with Sparks bills and change supplier.
    Meter reading history:
    20/11/19 - 0
    1/12/19 - 458 (estimated)
    1/1/20 - 1711 (estimates)
    1/2/20 - 2980 (estimated)
    10/2/20 -3324
    1/3/20 -3984
    13/3/20-4323

    then it was smart meter readings.
    Thank you all for your help!!

    Actually although estimated the Spark figures tie up very well with the 1000 Kwh average (over the winter period)
    Never pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill
