A housing association tenant in north Norfolk who's getting all her neighbours' energy bills says she's worried it's going to affect her credit rating.

Shelley Hewitt lives in one of 11 flats in an old school house in the town. But for some reason, hers is the only name Scottish Power has listed, so she gets not just her own bill, but also all the demands for her neighbours.

She says it's been going on for more than a year: "Now I'm getting these final demands I'm worried that it's going to affect my credit rating... I don't want to be blacklisted on my credit because of their incompetence."

Scottish Power has apologised for the time it's taking to resolve the problem, saying it will compensate those involved.
