Im a mother if 4 live in a 3 bedroom property. I am with Utilita for gas and electric. My DD was 82.86 in start then went up to 121.00 then i was told im using too much and DD put up to 185.86 ive told them i cant afford it. They cant tell me where too much gas is being used. I dont know how to find out either. How do i check? We dont even put radiators on im worried about the winters now. Please let me know who can tell me where im using too much gas.
