Energy firms AREN'T allowed to back-bill over 1 year
Ie. if you're sent a bill for the first time about energy from past years (providing you didn't obstruct em in getting the info) it's usually wrong. You needn't pay it. Make a formal complaint & if needed go to Energy Ombudsman.
I'm giving evidence in parliament on this soon. If it's happened to you let me know (and let me know what happened).
In response to a rise in the @ofgem price cap in April, the 3rd in a row for already struggling customers & the RTS switch off on 30th June, we are holding Energy Advice Drop Ins to give advice to anyone in the community
