Turn a rad off to save money?
Hi, can you advise please. We've got 8 radiators in our house. One bedroom isn't being used now so if we turned the radiator off or down will it make the gas bill a bit lower or does it all cost the same due to the boiler running anyway?

British Gas £50 switch reward
Did anyone switch to British Gas last year on a promise of £50 reward at the end of the 12 months? If so make sure your account has been credited, it's taken me 10 weeks to get it sorted. I also switched tariffs in August this year on the promise of an energy saving monitor and stand by monitor. I'm still chasing these.

GAS vE3LECTRICITY: which gives you the most bang for your buck?
Based on my usage over the last 12 months, I am paying an annual average of 3 pence per kWh for gas and 9 pence per kWh for electricity.

I am looking to change to a fixed/capped tariff as my current supplier has hiked their prices.
