TESCO questions

How do I get a duplicate TESCO bill?

Enter your 14-digit reference number on the official TESCO portal and download the duplicate bill PDF. It is accepted for payment at banks and in mobile wallets.

What if my TESCO bill looks too high?

Compare the units or volume consumed against previous months first, since adjustment lines follow consumption. If the reading looks wrong, file a complaint on 118 and ask for a meter check.

Can I pay after the due date?

You can, but a late payment surcharge is added, and repeated late payment can lead to disconnection notices.
