A person who was sent an energy bill of nearly £2,000 per month was left wondering whether they were paying for their whole town. While the cost of living - and particularly energy bills - is rapidly rising, this one would surely bust the price cap.
The bill was posted online by Twitter user @FplAndSte and showed details of how British Gas was planning to take a first monthly payment of £1,954 on April 1, which would equate to yearly usage not far shy of £24,000. The tweet has since gone viral, with other people speaking of similar experiences after the user asked whether he was paying for "the whole of f***ing Bolton".
User @Rob_ladnet also shared a screenshot of a bill he had in January, which put his monthly payments to British Gas at £7,024.28. Meanwhile @amyy0506 joked she was paying for South Yorkshire after receiving a direct debit bill from Eon for £5,361.57 a month, reports the MEN.
