There are countries that don't have that kinda cash!

A UK customer has gotten a lot more than he bargained for after receiving a cheque from his energy company for over two trillion pounds.

Northern Powergrid provide electricity to 3.9 million properties in the North East of England and had sent out compensation payment to customers affected by a power outage.

Gareth Hughes had been without power for several days following a storm, and so was in line for a bit of compensation from his electricity provider.

When we say a big - Gareth received a cheque for two trillion, three hundred and twenty four billion, two hundred and fifty two million, eighty thousand, one hundred and ten pounds.

In case you're wondering, it looks like this in numbers:

£2,324,252,080,110

Clearly, it's been sent in error, but imaging the shock of finding that through your post box!
