    What a shame for you.

    How about you get a job and pay your own bills? I don't like deductions from my wage via tax and national insurance, but I still don't get my money I've worked damn well hard for back!

    yes you will get it back

    but it may take some time and a few phone calls

    you need proof it was finished in december

    and you need to find out when the utility company cancelled the order for payment

    that tells you who has your money

    they may have it if the order has only recently been cancelled

    eventually - just contact your local council

    it may take time but you should get it back
