Have you been charged correctly for your gas and electricity bills?

Every year thousands of customers and businesses in the UK are overcharged for their gas & electricity bills. In this past year alone, the Energy Ombudsman has seen an 84% increase on the number of complaints made to them. One topic leading to a substantial number of complaints is overcharging by energy suppliers. Overcharging can become catastrophic particularly for businesses, as they already are trying to navigate around a volatile market with uncapped rates.

Reasons For Overcharging

You can be overcharged on your energy statements for several reasons.  Some of the most common reasons are:

  • Incorrect readings from meters and smart meters that are faulty.
  • Suppliers applying the incorrect tariff to your account.
  • Details incorrectly input onto the database. This can be done by mistakes made at your end or your energy provider’s end.
  • Energy supplies are assuming incorrect usage on your behalf.

Think You’ve Been Overcharged?

If your energy bill has skyrocketed recently, or if you believe the information that the energy supplier holds for your usage is incorrect than you may have been overcharged on your energy.
