EV charger installation and fuse upgrade questions
We're planning to get an EV charger installed. I've just ordered a Zappi Glo, and am getting quotes for installation. There is a complication in that our main fuse is 60A and we've been advised that we will need to get it upgraded to 100A. This in turn will involve getting our main tails upgraded from 16mm to 25mm. I'm…

Fuse Energy, anybody with them?
As they were being mentioned on another thread I thought I would take a look and sure enough very cheap SC for electricity and discounted unit rate by the looks of it. Personally happy with Octopus and our Tracker/Agile seasonal hop-skip-jump but it's always nice to see if the upstairs companies are getting any traction…

Saving £100 on burnams energy vat deal.
The prime minister said that he was removing VAT from energy bills. I know find out it is only going to be on the electricity part. I am a computer database geek and spreadsheet geek.

I switched at the start of Sept 24 and so far have failed to provide Octopus the flow D86 so Octopus can't issue final bill that has over £400 of credit.
