Billing and validation errors
For various reasons, utilities bills are often incorrect and without a detailed knowledge of the industry, it is very difficult and time consuming to check that bills are correctly rendered.
The types and number of errors found can be as high as 30% of the invoices checked, this value increases further when a client changes supplier. By regular checking and validation of bills, ENER-G eliminates billing errors before the problem gets out of hand – thus ensuring that clients are not being overcharged or paying someone else’s bill.
Typically, billing errors fall into the following categories:
- Duplicate bill
- Incorrect VAT
- Incorrect tariff
- Paying someone else’s bill
- Estimation errors
- CCL errors
