once you get the details sorted out, set up a direct debit. And for the phone, and everything else including management charges.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Thanks Pam.
Phone and the rest are on DD, but seems this bill was sent out just before DDs were completed!
I will call my "man on the ground" and see if he can sort it.

@Philip1972, they will probably send a final reminder. We had a similar problem with our water bill in our first year as owners. We missed the proper bill as we'd just become the owners. First we knew was a final request for the sewerage part of the bill from the commune several months later. All sorted quite quickly with a couple of emails and a couple of cheques.

I, as a Tignes resident (!) was just about to say that I had never heard of that website, but having googled Regie de Electrique de Tignes I find that it is my electric company's website!!!!!!
They are the local company and until about 3 years ago they were the only supplier in Tignes until the French electricity Supply Cos were deregulated. Given they are still cheaper than most companies (old subsidies negotiated at the time of the Dam) I would say 95% of properties are still with them - based on quite a number of mates. They still have an (over)staffed local office so if you e mail them with the property name and number and your name and ask for a PDF of the bill I am sure they will send you one even with an account number.
Worthy of note the bills come at 4 monthly intervals. I now pay mine by prelevement, just go to the office (under the med centre in Le Lac with a bill, ID and a Bank RIB (the chit with all the details of your account).

Thanks all, especially Mr Chocksaway.
I mailed them and 20 mins later I had received a PDF of the bill!
