A family from Edinburgh have been left 'flabbergasted' after they were forced to cancel their first holiday in years after their energy bills rose from £199 a month in January to a whopping £756 per month.
Abu Meron's bank account was left in the red after Scottish Power repeatedly raised the prices of his family's energy bills, and then took nearly £2000 out of their bank account by mistake.
This meant that the dad-of-two had to cancel his family's trip to Paris which would have been the first vacation in years for Abu and his wife, who is a front line NHS worker, according to Edinburgh Live.
