With regards to your second paragraph, I did contact them, on several occasions, to confirm that the bill was correct. After being constantly reassured that it was, I took it as fact. I’m no gas or electricity provider, nor do I have any experience in the field, who am I to argue with British Gas?

no, but common sense would tell anyone that they're using more than 'almost £0' a month in fuel. If that loaf of breads price fluctuated and by paying more you'd reduce the overall payments in a year, then yes, I would pay more for the bread.
Sounds more like you were told your bill was low, made a phone call taking yes its correct as gospel and sufficient grounds to cover you if anything happened, and thought yay you're quids in here now paying next to nothing for gas and electric.
