    Turnoff the main switch for your apartment (for a few hours would be best). If the meter reading continues to increase then someone else's load s fed from your meter. If the meter reading freezes then you are only paying for your own electricity usage.

    You need to find the distribution board that serves your apartment.

    Moderator suggests good advice.
    Old fashioned pen and paper .
    Write down the reading with time and date.
    If you cannot find the isolation switch, as suggested, ask a neighbour for help.
    Or the owner to locate it - it could be very useful to know where this switch is.
