Photo of fuel bill.  It says: Total charges this bill...  We've explained your bill in detail over the page.  Payment is due now -- highlighted in green.

This scared her because she would be unable to go to the shops to top up a prepay card.” When she tried to explain why she couldn’t pay, they replied, “switch off” the equipment she needs.

WinVisible supported her to successfully resist the energy company installing a prepayment meter in her home, and have now written to the company complaining about their behaviour and asking them to write off her debt. ‘We’re against bullying’.”
