Frequently Asked Questions
How do I object to an incorrect electricity bill?
Send a written objection to your energy provider with your contract number, billing period, and a precise description of the error. Continue paying the undisputed amount to avoid supply interruptions (Section 19 StromGVV protects against disconnection in case of a legitimate objection).
Can the electricity provider cut off my supply if I object?
A power cut is only permitted if the arrears are at least 100 euros and a disconnection warning was delivered 4 weeks in advance plus a disconnection notice 8 working days in advance (Section 19(2) StromGVV). During a pending objection to the bill amount, a disconnection is generally disproportionate.
Am I entitled to a meter inspection?
Yes, under Section 17(1) MessEG you can request an inspection of the electricity meter by the metering operator. If the inspection confirms a defect, the metering operator bears the costs. If the meter is correct, you bear the inspection costs (approximately 50-100 euros).
