The bill is higher than expected

Compare the number of billing days, the kWh used and the price charged per kWh. Check whether the opening and closing reads are actual or estimated. A longer bill period, a change in usage and a higher rate need different follow-up.

Your contract is ending or the rate has changed

Find the signed offer, current end date and the supplier’s notice. Ask for the current rate, the proposed rate and the date it applies. Energy Solutions can help you compare business energy contract options.

The invoice is for the wrong site, tenant or period

Gather the site address, supply identifier, invoice numbers, occupancy dates and dated reads. Put the supplier’s bills and your evidence on one timeline. If the issue is a repeat charge or a persistent dispute, ask for a written explanation and keep the case reference.

You’re waiting for a correction or credit

Find the supplier’s written agreement, check the value and period it covers, then match it against the account statement and later bills. For a disputed or missing business energy credit, Costmaster investigates billing errors and pursues corrections.
