Confusing utility bills
If like many people every month the utility bill drops on the door mat or pings in your email account you look at it like it’s a cryptic puzzle making sure you are up to date with the many utility bills your receive each month, you are not alone, many of us feel the dreaded confusion of the utility bill. If someone could offer you the solution of just having one utility bill to look at monthly, helping you take the worry away. Just imagine gas, electric even mobile phone and home broadband in one place, in one utility bill, how helpful and convenient would that be?
How to read your utility bill?
Check if they are estimates or actual readings this will always be stated on the energy used section of the utility bill.
If your utility bill is an estimate give the company an actual reading as this can affect the monthly usage for the better or unfortunately the worst, meaning paying less or more each month.
Check amount due and when this is going to leave the bank or when you should pay this, this is very important if its your responsibility to pay your utility bill instead of direct debit, if you fail to pay the utility company may switch off your supply until you pay the utility bill. This can cause much stress and worry which we don’t want to happen to you.
