A woman over 100 years of age has received a two-month electricity bill for almost €1,000 after her previous bill was just over €130.
The startling bill came despite the customer claiming that she had not changed her electrical usage in any major way.
The bill amount of €957 was for electricity used by the elderly woman during the 59 days from December 7 to February 3 - and she said it was after the Government’s €200 energy credit was applied.
