£470 electricity bill!
I’ve just been sent a bill by e-on for £470 for a quarter, I’m sure this can't be right but is there anything i can do to question it? Originally i was sent one for £360 which was an estimate so i called up with my readings and it's come back even more expensive. I can't see how this can be as I live on my own in a two…

Gas Meter being resited help !
This is not from choice but have been instructed that it is to happen due to being built over, i.e. about 20 years ago someone added an attached garage and the meter has remained in the garage ever since. I assume It is going to be resited on the front wall of the house under a window, but as we haven't heard from anyone…

Electricity Supplier Being Changed Without Authorisation
Recently we received a final bill from Scottish Power which we thought strange. After a quick phone call it transpired that some other power company said they were taking over the account. We pointed out that we hadn't spoken to another power company or authorised a switch. (At this point we didn't know which company).…

Just had a review of my fuel DD's
Been living here 2 years. I ALWAYS correct an estimated bill with a telephone reading, I don't want in under or over estimated either way. We owe a silly piddling amount on gas (ABOUT £30), so I've increased that DD to £20 from £15. That will cover our arrears - £30 over 2 years & the £1.50 per month that we already use,…

Final bill with British Gas
I've switched from British Gas to NPower for gas and electric who sold me their new fixed price deal until 2011 on my doorstep. I told them my main worry about switching was that I would then get a final bill from Briitsh Gas who would no doubt want paying straight away which would cause me a problem. They advised that all…

E-on Price Protection query
I'm with NPower (groan) and thinking of changing to E-on who seem to be the best suggestions from energywatch etc. I'm looking at the capped (price protection) option. I believe that this is not a fixed term one, so in theory I could switch if I change my mind in the future. This is fixed until 2009 - does anyone know if…

Are EDF cheap?
I'm 8 months pregnant and got accosted in Sainsburys to switch. I have my gas with NPower and Elect with Good Energy. The guy wasn't really pushy,but said that Martin Lewis had recommended EDF and that as prices were going up very soon by 35%, EDF's capped prices until JAN 2010 would definitely save me money. WAs he…

Should we change?
We are with EDF for Gas and Electric. Gas is on a prepayment meter. We prefer it as it's like PAYG and only costs us about £240 a year - £30 a month Oct to March, and £10 a month April to September. I have just worked out our electric bill for the year, and it's coming in at £960! Please tell me I can get it much cheaper…
