How should I play this situation re previous tenant not paying any bills
I've recently moved into a new flat and tried to use British Gas' home movers service to bring my gas and electricity with me (I have no loyalty to BG, just thought it would be the easiest thing to do to begin with and assumed the previous tenant was with them). British Gas have said they can't find my flat, or something,…

I was expecting to see some Eon tariffs in the results but there were none at all (cheapest for me came out as Scottish Power). Im on an online tariff now but was wondering whether to switch to Eon's fixed tariff. I'd like to know…

However, according to a letter I received today, the daily standing charge for gas is going up by 50% - well at least on my tariff (online saver V8). Also my unit charge has increased by 8.7%. This is…

Would you consider installing solar panels? Poll
Hi guys, I'm doing a bit of research about solar panels for a thesis and thought this would be a good place to ask people. If you could spare (literally) 20 seconds to fill out this survey it would be really useful. tolu.na/pgNFm2 (not allowed to post links yet, copy and past that if you'd be so kind) You don't need to…

We currently have a pretty larger radiator in one of our rooms and the room requires a radiator half that size, so were looking to change a 1400 long radiator with a 800 long radiator. Would this cost a lot? im assuming that only one of the pipes would need…

£4000 Final Gas bill from Scottish Power
Well this sort of spoilt my Indian Summer Saturday! :eek: I am in the process of changing energy suppliers and have received a final gas bill from Scottish Power for just over £4000 (for less that 2 years of gas supply).
