Plumber said to leave boiler on all the time
We recently had some plumbing work done and the plumber told me that it was cheaper to leave the hot water on all the time (as opposed to the timer) as it was cheaper. Is this true? We don't use much hot water - only really showers in the morning, a bit of washing up in evening and odd showers in evening as well. Any…

Gas consumption
I live with one other person in a 3 bed Victorian terrace house and last August I had a very old boiler replaced with a new Worcester combi boiler.

Eon raising DD
Eon have written to us to say that despite us providing online meter readings every month for the last year, it appears they ignored them and estimated our usage. Now they are increasing our DD from £75 pm to £181 :eek: to clear the arrears and cover winter usage. Now, I understand we've used this amount but my question is…

I'm with EDF who are ok although not amazing at using the readings we supply. How does npower rank amoung the main providers? I…

Are price comparison sites trustworthy?
I have my doubts. I just reviewed my Gas and Electricity supply with Energyhelpline and decided to move from British Gas' Websaver 2 to their Websaver 3 tariff since it said I would be £11 a year better off.

This is being deliberately obstructive so that we do not know how much they are fleecing us! Also as we switched from dual fuel (to go to Ecotricity) there is no record of past years usage and bills. The helpline…
