Meter reading?!

My energy supplier has estimated my usage at 07604.00 but the meter is showing 015930.05 seems to be a huge difference!

If these are both meter reads, then I'll point out that their one is missing a digit (unless you simply didn't include another 0)

Having worked in an energy company, missing a digit for a meter read does happen occasionally.

Perhaps their estimated read should be 017604

I’m guessing I have no but choice to send the number that’s on the meter as I don’t know how else to find out what has actually been used.

That's exactly what you're supposed to do. You don't try to work out your own usage, you just tell them the number showing on the meter at the time and they'll work it out.

3 months. Stupidly never took any when first moved in, didn’t even cross my mind and The setting up of the energy bills was left in my wife’s hands, wasn’t until today I looked at the account and saw they’ve been requesting meter readings for the last couple of months

So an initial reading must have been given and/or they said 'based on previous usage we estimate it to be this so you'll pay this'.

Isnt that the FIT meter for the solar panels? Considering it says photovoltaic system on the meter and that meter serial number doesn't conform to the usual format for import meter serial numbers.

@BigBoy is a trained meter tech i believe and might be able to confirm or not

Do you have pics of any other meters at the property @lta2001

Looks like a PV solar array generation meter to me. No seals that I can see from the pic, Can you stand back from the meter and get the whole picture please.

FYI on your bill and most paper work from your supplier it will have the serial number of the meter they expect you to be reading.
