Payment meter....Changing supplier
I've had a quick look but couldn't see anything on this, but I thought there was an article on it. The young girl in the flat above me is on benefits and has 2 young children. She is on a pre-payment meter and is putting about £20 a day on it. She doesn't want to change to a pay by direct debit meter. I seem to remember…

npower - different tarrifs - Is it a con?
I switched to npower sign on-line a few months ago because they were the cheapest supplier at the time with a seemingly good reputation.

New boiler/tank question - sorry if wrong place for post
I wasn't sure where to post this! Sorry if it's in the wrong place. Basically our elec and gas is horribly expensive :eek: (£59 per month electricity, £94 per month gas).

BG threatening court action
I switched to Ebico for gas in mid-July from BG. Ebico stated that I could either phone in my meter reading or send it on a postcard they had provided. Stupidly I phoned it in (as I thought it would be quicker) and since then have received bills and letters from BG saying that I still owe them money. For some reason that I…

Pay too much on your Gas & Elec Direct Debit? Ask for a reduction on your purchases
What's it about? Let me be specific here, what I mean is "is your Direct Debit consistently higher than it should be, so that you always get a rebate?" If the answer's yes, simply ask the company to reduce your monthly amount, meaning the cash earns you interest - and aids your personal cash flow. What to do If possible…

Is there a plug-in meter?
I'd like to be able to find out how much we save by, for eg, turning the TV off rather than have it on standby, and I wondered if there was such a thing as a plug in gadget that you then plug the TV into (perhaps like an adaptor), has a screen that then tells you how much electricity you are using up by have the TV on -…

A couple of weeks ago went through U Switch to change gas & elec suppliers, but have heard nothing from new suppliers, or old ones either.

Delays in switching to Atlantic
I used uswitch 5 weeks ago to initiate a switch to Atlantic. Peeps on here suggested that the switch could take as long as six weeks. I thought this was ridiculous; it's all computerised after all.

Free gas no more! Am I in trouble?
My girlfriend and I moved into a one bedroom flat in June 2005 and when we rang to find out who supplied our gas we were told that nobody did. So, we've been using it and not paying for it for a year. Now we've got a letter from xoserve saying that we have to get a supplier. Who should we change to and are we going to have…
