I have just kicked them out !!........

They did the same to me, wrote and said, after leaving it a year " you are
£197.00 in debt on your account ! " bear in mind i do pay it monthly anyway.

After a bit of arguing, I said take it and sod off !!!!!!

Surely no one would use that amount of electric and gas in one month!

They must have made a mistake surely!

Not unless you have a warehouse of a house or around your way they just take the piss on your charges

Electric is a normal level, im only at the property 1 day/night a week!
