What is utility bill validation?
Utility bill validation is the process of reviewing utility invoices against available contract, tariff, consumption, meter, and account information to identify potential discrepancies or billing errors. Where an issue is identified, it can then be investigated with the relevant supplier.
What types of utility bills can you validate?
We can support billing validation across business energy and water accounts, including organisations with complex or multi-site utility portfolios.
What types of billing errors can occur?
Potential issues can include incorrect rates or tariffs, estimated meter readings, incorrect meter information, consumption discrepancies, unexpected charges, missing credits, and account administration errors. The issues that can be identified will depend on the information available for each account.
Can you check historic utility bills?
Yes. Where historic invoices and relevant supporting information are available, we can review previous billing to help identify potential discrepancies that may require further investigation.
What happens if you find a billing error?
Where a potential discrepancy is identified, our team can investigate the issue and liaise with the relevant supplier. If an error is confirmed, we’ll help manage the process of correcting the account and recovering applicable credits or overpayments.
Can you deal with the utility supplier on our behalf?
Yes. Supplier liaison is an important part of our account management service. We can raise queries, provide available supporting information, track progress, and communicate with suppliers to help reach a resolution.
Can you validate bills across multiple sites?
Yes. We support single and multi-site organisations and can help review billing across multiple accounts, meters, sites, and suppliers.
Can billing validation help reduce utility costs?
Billing validation can identify situations where an organisation may have been incorrectly charged or where account information requires correction. It can also provide greater visibility of consumption and costs, helping organisations identify unusual changes that may warrant further investigation.
How often should utility bills be validated?
For organisations with significant utility spend or complex portfolios, ongoing validation can help identify discrepancies sooner rather than relying solely on periodic reviews. The most appropriate approach will depend on the size and complexity of your utility portfolio.
What information do you need to review our utility bills?
This will depend on your portfolio, but information may include recent utility invoices, contracts, meter details, consumption data, site information, and relevant supplier account details. Our team can help identify what's required before beginning the review.
