Hi guys, serious help needed please for a good friend. Here is the story:-

 

 

BG have passed an account of a deceased person to UMS, and UMS are now threatening Magistrates Court to break in and fit card meter.

 

I gave BG a reading when I moved in to the house, and have been paying my account on time.

 

All I know is that the deceased's estate was in probate for about 2 years

 

UMS are chasing a combined electric + gas dual fuel account, but they are chasing it in my name as I just happen to have the same surname as the deceased person!!

 

What am I to do? This is driving me mental.

 

I am disabled, with children, and the last thing I need is someone at my door.

It sounds like BG haven't followed the correct process following the death of the previous account holder. Did they close their account and set up a new one for you? If they have then they wouldn't be able to proceed with a Warrant - this action can only be taken against a live supply.

Yes, my friend has a complete new account with totally different account numbers, but still with the same utility company.
