Electricty bill / Landlord

Ask your landlord for a copy of the actual bill / bills for the last 6 months. Whilst the landlord may not let you have the bill in your name you should ask him to register the number of occupants at the property, you'll need e-residency cards for this. You can then be on the residence tariff which is the cheapest, I assume he/she is working the bill out using Domestic rate which will be the most expensive, whilst he/she is possibly only paying residential rates,  that's probably why no actual bill copy.
Take a look at the ARMS website for more info.

If you know the meter readings from when you first moved in you can calculate the amounts  for residential rates for the number of occupants of the property and see how it compares.
Also if the bill asks for extra for late payment, that is your landlords problem, not yours.  Our first landlord tried to get an extra 120 by presenting a six monthly bill..

Good luck

Thank you for your input and tips. I will check it to make sure there is no monkey business here :-). Have a good weekend.

Alao ask him to register you with Form H so you pay the cheaper rate rarher than the rate that allows him to illlegally dodge taxes.

Will do, thanks.

Form H - the ‘Change in number of persons declaration’ specifies that valid identity cards [issued by any other EU / EEA Member State or Switzerland] OR passports may ALSO be presented for this purpose. Minors, children and infants may also be included.

It enables those householders, living in their primary home, to access the correct, occupant-registered ‘Residential’ tariffs - saving up to 50% on their water and electricity consumption bills.
