Need independent contractor to check gas meter
Hello all,
We received a humongous heating bill for 2025, 2,4k eur, despite of being away for most of the winter.
Every year we have the same problem, we have floor heating but we put the thermostat off, but the charges remain insane.
We want to try to dispute it, but the company provider say they can check if the meter is faulty for us. At the same time, other neighbors had the same problem and they found no issues with their meters.
I don't trust the same company to do the meter check, as obviously it's on their very interest to tell you that the meter is working.
Therefore, does anyone know an independent contractor we can call to check this, so that we can make sure that the judgement is valid? Also, what would be the cost of such a check?
Many thanks everyone
