    Gas and electric bills are usually every two months but you may get a gas bill one month and the electric bill the following month. You could also ask to see the receipt from when your housemate paid the last bill if you had concerns.

    So if my bill normaly comes around the 20ish and normaly is every 2months that would mean it would come the end of july right?

    Yes but if the bill arrived early in May your housemate may have forgotten it for a few weeks and not paid it or asked you for money for it for some time after, if that was the case then your next bill could be due at the end of June or early July. Can you check the issue date on the last bill? make sure you see the bills and the payment reciepts as you could be ripped off otherwise.

    Ask your housemate for copies of the bill. Do not hand money over without getting some proof of where the money is going.

    Sometimes if you submit a meter reading you might get a revised bill. Maybe this happened?
