A group of young flatmates from Edinburgh were left upset and distressed after receiving a gas bill for a massive £1,000 - despite not having the heating on for nearly a year.
Holly Crooks, 25, and two fellow graduates had been getting bills for under £50-a-month for gas at their three-bedroom flat in the Dalry area of the city.
The pals were taken aback to receive a whopping £1,075 gas bill on December 2 - yet were charged just £46 the month before. Conscious of soaring fuel costs, the housemates had left the heating off since February last year. Holly contacted OVO to investigate whether there had been an error but was unable to reach anyone.
