What is BillConverter?
Turn UK energy bill PDFs into structured Excel spreadsheets BillConverter extracts data from UK electricity and gas bill PDFs into an Excel workbook.
Why we recommend it
BillConverter is worth trying when UK energy bills need to become rows in Excel rather than entries in a full accounting package. Two free conversions let an occasional user check whether their supplier's format works, and the £1.99 top-up is a sensible alternative to another subscription.The strongest documented detail is the two-sheet output with separate tariff periods and day/night rate bands. The limitation is evidence: we have not tested extraction accuracy, and a financial spreadsheet still needs a comparison with the original bill. The website's file-discard claim also needs to be read alongside its 90-day conversion-log retention. Treat it as a focused data-preparation aid, not a source of verified accounting figures.
