Storage heaters question?

I was wondering, can I leave the heaters on at the wall all the time with the input set to high and output set to low? Or will this drink…

Metered electricity at a ridiculously expensive rate... HELP !!
Hi, I have just moved into a new flat to find that the electricity (through EDF which we are not allowed to change) is charged through a meter - we put £1 coins in and watch the money go down. The money is decreasing at a ridiculously high rate - we use as little electricity and lights as possible and turn everything off…

Electricity Supplier Backdating?
Up until November 2007 I had no record of anyone supplying my property for gas or electricity. A rep from E'on came to visit me at this point and took over the supply of the property and I explained everything to him.

My flatmate and I moved into our flat in April - utilities supplied by British Gas. We did a search on a comparison website and decided to move to npower, so cancelled our account with BG.

Can Scottish Power do this?
Hi, I've just been on to S.P. because they wanted to raise my DD from £51 to £87. I managed to get them down to £67.50.

Winter benefits payment idea.

As mentioned in the other thread, its a shame that ALLOT of people end up spending this benefit on other amenities other than what it is meant for. And don't get me wrong, even I have been guilty of this, sometimes not even…

watch out you don't lose your Nectar points: EDF or Sainburys energy
I've just found out I've lost all my Nectar points for the last year because I did not actively claim them, nor did Sainsburys (or EDF) write to tell me that I had to do so - it used to be automatically credited to my Nectar account in the past. That's £900 of energy Nectar points :mad: For some reason, EDF tell me that…
