the more expensive bill is off meter reads. The cheaper one was estimations averaged out over the month, so it was pre-paid. Found that all a bit zany tbh.

hmm. see, I'm the sort of prick that has zero problems challenging every single estimate bill with an actual photo - especially with smart meters how tf do you "estimate" when you can literally pull the data immediately - but prepaid? Do you mean it averages out, or do you mean they literally want prepayment?
