Have BG discontinued the early payment discount?

meter readings, how often
I've decided to take meter readings, how many do i take per day and for how long? I took one when we got home at 6pm, we'd been out from like 1:30pm. 6pm L - 43466 N - 52320 Then decided to look again at 10pm and they read L - 43466 N - 52330 Normal going up by 10 is quiet a lot for 4hrs surely.
