Energy meter ‘error’ sparks complete bills panic as couple told to pay staggering sum

A man was left shocked after receiving an energy bill charging him a staggering £738 a month, despite his claims that the company made a mistake with his meter reading. At the beginning of the year, Mike Davies and his wife, from Wales, moved home and switched his energy supplier at the beginning of the year after shopping around for a better deal. The couple signed up for a 24-month contract with energy supplier SSE, which is a part of the Ovo Energy group, paying £122 a month. Initially, they noted that they were more than happy with the service, as the two, both aged 60, were able to rack up a credit of over £140. However, they were soon in for a shock after receiving a statement from the company telling them they owed them more than £500.
