Hi,
I wonder does anyone go through their electricity bills to the extent they are calculating where the company is getting their figures from and ensuring they all match the stated usage figures etc?
I moved to a new 12 month tariff recently with the same provider. I looked at my last 3 electricity bills the other day out of interest to see if I was on a better or worse tariff now. I noticed they made a mistake in the changeover bill, where they calculated a "product discount" of 2% on the new tariff portion of the bill rather than 21%.
This was so obvious as it stated 2% and the calculation opposite was 2%. It made me wonder though if I should be trying to calculate all the actual figures to see if they are making mistakes elsewhere.
I'm doing my best to get back into a money saving mindframe so I'd be curious if this type of thing has ever saved people money. I once tried to make sense of our mortgage statement by calculating it all out but in that case I found it overly confusing.
Thanks!
