nope they just love to estimate and when i enter the correct meter reading the computer says no ,and the system continues to send me these massive bills,I have to spend hours every 6 months to rectify it,yet they can't refund my money ever, as apparently it is too much to refund.So after 8 years of this shite i just refuse to pay them anything.
IF I had the time I would pass it all onto watch dog they are a joke

I dont understand some of the figures, I really dont. If your house is heat efficient it simply cant cost as much as some are paying. My house is a fairly large 4 bed detached & during that cold spell the heating was on 18 hours a day, when the Mrs was in the stat was set at 22 cos below that she aint happy. I payed 69 gas & 82 elec a month last year & this year its 88 gas & still 82 elec & they owe me money.
I fully agree. I live in a mid-terrace 2-bed house and my bills are listed in a post above. The only reason my electric bill is so high is due to 3 big fish tanks (other halfs', not mine) and my PC (basically a network server) being on 24 hours a day. Most of my lights are on of an evening as I am constantly moving around the house and the gas bill is what it is, even though the central heating was on 24 hours a day for the last month (I have no double-glazing @ the back of the house and old leaky metal double glazing @ the front so is not that efficient). How people can be paying £200+ per month I do not understand, unless they are families of 30 or have serious electric tools. Hell, my father basically lives alone and even his electric bill is only slightly higher than mine, and we have his industrial compressor going some evenings and almost every weekend working on the cars.

I had similar from EON.. now ignoring the actual monetary value (as they had a 37% price increase in August last year), they are claiming my USAGE (as in kWh) has TRIPLED from the autumn period to winter.. Apparently i'm using ~30 kWh/day in my small flat.. yeah right.. that's an average consumption of 1.3 kW..
Bear in mind my heating is gas and my electicity usage pattern hasn't changed at all between the two periods.. it's completely ridiculous..
They said it'd cost me £100 to get a secondary meter fitted to confirm the original one is accurate.. If found to be wrong though, they'd reimburse me and back-pay me for the cock-up..
Anyway.. i've got a AC clamp multimeter and I checked the feed going into the meter.. 800W.. that was with most of what I typically use switched on.. i've since turned off something which was using 300W constantly (an old computer(s)).. I've bought a CurrentCost device which is attached to the feed going to the meter and it's telling me i'm now averaging around 11kWh/day.. quite a long way off the 30kWh that the 'leccy meter was telling me?
Oh well, i'm still doing tests. If I find the meter to be inaccurate, EON will be getting it!! In the ass!!!!!!
