Energy Bills and Energy Ombudsman decisions: When to give up?

If you're (apparently) using the high levels of electricity your meter says you are, you need to find out what's using it. A clip-on energy monitor and a day spent isolating things will reveal all.1

But a banker, engaged at enormous expense,Had the whole of their cash in his care.

Seriously, OP, please listen to Gerry1 and some of the other knowledgeable posters on here, for your own sake. If you do not find out whether the meter you think is yours actually is and just exactly what you are using, you will be stuck on this wheel like a hamster... Like a hamster who is paying for too much electricity, from what you say.2
