Default Electricity usage

Random but my meter has to be faulty!

I'm no genius but pretty sure 4302 kWh over 3 months in summer is physically impossible for a 2 bed flat where I'm only here evenings! Looked online and it says average consumption is 4200kWh for a YEAR for a 2 bed!

What can I do as obviously it'll be tough to prove it wasn't used but there's just no way that's right! Nothings changed here and the storage heaters were off all summer!
