Alternatives to storage heaters?
Does anyone know anything about "JAWO Electric Radiators"? They seem like a good idea but are the pumps noisy? I've read elsewhere on MSE that all heaters give the same output (so I won't be taken in by the Wibo rep who's coming to talk to me tomorrow). I've recently had a quote for an ASHP system which was over £2K more…

Past discussions have been…

HELP LEGAL ACTION - IPA and not enough money
I moved house and it took a month or so for my energy supplier to take over the new address. The supplier at that address wrote to someone else in the house with a different name and so I didn't know about the billing until it was too late. The usage charge compared to my current supplier is about £80 more than it would…
