Hi
Got an ESB bill yesterday and nearly had a heart attack!
Meter man rang doorbell other day & read meter. This is first time in 19 months that meter has been read!
If he was around the other times and couldn't get in as gates locked why didn't he leave a notice slip to say he d been around?
I would always read meter and phone it in myself but when no slip was coming in door I didnt read own meter.
Have been paying our bills every 2 months but in today's bill, as man read it other day they are back tracking 19 months and have landed me with a whopping €1000 bill!
Surely this isn't right as 19 months is a long time to leave before this came to their notice.
Have I any rights regarding this situation?
I woulnt mind 5-6 months but surely 19 months is a slip up on their behalf?
