Issue with energy company charges

Eon does indeed use Kraken for their domestic customers. Not sure if the platform automatically emails the bills as a pdf (it may be optional at Eon's end). Then again, not everyone keeps copies of old emails.
I do, and filters are applied so that energy.com emails get saved to a different folder.Any language construct that forces such insanity in this case should be abandoned without regrets. –

Am I reading correctly ? We now know that the (gas) meter was not "faulty". but perhaps a reading issue ?
From the records you have please give us the meters reads for 6 months before and after the "spike". Make sure you include the letters A , C or E.
Has the meter serial number changed in this period ? Does the meter have the letters ft3 or m3 on it. Do the same letters appear on your bill ?
Please read the meter today and perhaps a photo ?
Re the Smart can't be fitted. Age of the property has nothing to do with it - perhaps insufficient space in the meter box ? A cellar can prove problematic but mine has a cable connection to a transmitter on an outside wall.
Never pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill0 -
eon has said it is faulty and report it to national gas but still nothing has happened since March 2026

Time to make a formal complaint to Eon - use their published system.

What are they saying the fault is? We had a gas meter that was recorded wrongly on the BG system as imperial but was actually metric. Could that be the issue here?
Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.0 -
A photo of the gas meter and some reading history would be useful, if the OP could provide them.
