It steams me even thinking about it right now.
You probably can check the meter yourself, you know (this access maybe a requirement by law). For my townhouse, all the meters (gas and electricity0 )are located at the side of the building. Everyone can read them. My gas company charged me 35 last month. I went outside to read it and it should have been 19 and so I called them and they sent me another bill.
