Free LecyThe biggest lie I ever told was to the accounts department of a certain electricity supplier. I'd was renting a room in a shared house and everyone chipped in a set amount each month to a bills account , after a year I realised that we'd never had an electricity bill, when I asked the people who'd been in the house for four years they told me they'd never actually seen an elecrticity bill either. Didn't really pay much attention to it until we recieved one from the new energy supplier who had taken over in our area. We owed £2,800!!! Plums!! However the bill was addressed to 'The occupier' and there was no date from when the bill started or ended. After moaning about the bill at work a few people told me they were in the same situation, hadn't had a bill for ages and then a nameless bill for a huge amount. Sounded like the billing database had screwed up. As we we're all pretty skint we decided to try and blag it. I called up and told them we'd been in the house for four months and gave false names, should have really got them sorted before I called, I was sniggering when I gave the spelling of the last false name. Amazingly they bought it and we ended up paying £80.
Every envelope from the leccy company we got from then on I was sure was a court summons. Even had a dream about baliffs coming round and carting me off in handcuffs. So glad I moved out...
