You can read your own meter. What does it read today and how many days ago was it replaced? If you divide do you get about 40-50kWh/day?

My new meter started at zero as I expect all of them do. What day was your new meter installed and what day was it read? Divide again to determine how many kWh/day are being charged between the install and the first reading. It's a longshot but if the meter was not at zero but the first reading assumed it was then that would create a high bill. Between an unrealistic usage for the first few days of the new meter and a picture of the new meter showing a non-zero reading on at install you might be able to argue for an adjustment.
Good to know about the picture..........will ask for it if they every reply.
