Not only unethical, but quite probably illegal i.e. fraud.1

Yeh, I know that...just thinking aloud really. I'll go ahead and delete my post so as not encourage anyone else.SensibleSarah said:Not only unethical, but quite probably illegal i.e. fraud.0 -
I'm sure that there was no shortage of like minded people as at the 31st March.
If the cost is a concern. Time to focus on your usage.1 -
The problem is that your SVR DD will increase unfavourably because of your deemed usage!sparkiemalarkie said:

I take it your original post stated something like giving an inflated reading for 31st March.
Lots mentioned that in March on the forum.
Anyway hopefully you just rolled.over to the standard variable rate or fixed with a rate as close to the current price cap as possible.to.lessen.the blow?0 -

Entirely possible.
What was the previous DD amount they were taking ?
You need to actually do your sums, find out if you are in credit or debit then work out you annual charges based on the new tariff and annual consumption.
My bills will more than double when I fall off my fix.1
