this happened to me.. I got a backdated electric bill and when i phoned she said, no one had come out to read my meter over the years so the bill had been generated. I argued that it is their responsibilty to make sure the send someone to read my metre but she just said there was nothing they could do and that I would have to pay the bill.. I contacted energywatch and they agreed with me and they wrote to the Electricity company and then I received a revised bill - balance £0.00. so fight it!!

Yes - that's what those little cards are for that you fill in every six months or so.

And that would be why the meter man has to come round and read the meter every year!

unless it wasnt you that lived there than yes. its why they send meter readers out regularly.

unfortunatly for you - YES
suggest you work with them .
make sure you work with managers or supervisors only and get everything in writing. then get second and third jobs to pay this off fast. check your credit scores cause they report this.

Sure they can.

I am surprised that they took that long to get a actual reading, you can possibly work out a payment plan with them.


dels replies
Probably. You have had every opportunity when receiving previous bills to contact them and give an actual reading and an amended bill but you have not bothered because the under estimated reading was in your favour and you took advantage of the fact.Then comes the day of reckoning when the true consumption is revealed.You have used the fuel so now you have to pay for it.Whether all at once or perhaps over an agreed period of time .but yes it has to be paid.

You can't get out of paying for the electric. However, if the bill is quite excessive then contact your supplier and arrange a payment plan with them to settle the account in installments. They're usually very helpful in those sorts of situations.

Good luck


<THFC>
yes they can but if its a large amount contact them and pay by instalments
