Electricity usage...
I'm helping someone, who has just moved into a new flat, to switch their Electric... They didn't take an electric meter reading when they moved in (slap on the wrist) Is there another way to find out how much they have used since they moved in? Will the Elec company (Spark Energy) tell us over the phone?

This seems a huge amount to pay. As an alternative they offer a cap until June 2012 for a 19% charge above standard. Are any…

-£132 to fix. I don't understand what it means!
My brain isn't working well (and my excuse is chronic illhealth).

We were on a good deal with E-on (not fixed or capped) and the deal that came up top on Energyhelplines's list was…

Payment timing on Pre-pay meters
Hi, I have pre-pay meters that I don't want changed as I plan to rent the house out in a few years time anyway. The meters aren't smart (still needs a meter reader person to visit occasionally) so what would happen if I purchased extra gas and electric just before the prices are going to rise? Would that pay for a very…
