"Electricity "

My boyfriend has gone mad about our leccy bill as it is only 49p. He says that in 6 months time we're going to get a whaking horror of a bill when they read the meter.

Should we ring up the company, or just keep paying what they ask for and hope for the best...

Confused.

You could look at your electricity meter (hopefully you have one) and read the dial with the figures. Then look at the bill and see if they quote a figure for the electric you have used. If there is a big difference in the reading and what they put on the bill, you need to contact the company urgently as you may be running up a bill!

they could be paying for a previous occupant

you don't want any nasty surprises!

Think I might agree with your boyfriend there, best to just phone and ask as there may be a problem with your meter or something and you might end up paying for more!
