Dealing with Scottish Power
Hello, I recently moved into a 1 bed flat and and my gas and electricity is provided by Scottish power as part of their dual fuel online DD plan. I took a gas reading on the day I got in 02/12/11, one on the 14/01/2012 and one on 29/01/12. All was going well until the last reading gave me a bill of over £1200. I phoned…

EDF overcharged me for many years?
I have storage heaters and am on EDF Warmwise Tariff (no longer available) which give me a 2 hour top up for my heaters each day from 12 midday to 5pm (random times). Today I checked my meter almost every hour and at no time did the meter show the current reading to be at Number 4. which is the cheap rate for my daily…

I have received my first electricity bill for the first time in 5 years, for the last 5 years they have been coming to my house for meter readings, I contacted them in 2007 to set up a direct debit and all through that year it wasn't set up, after numerous phone calls throughout that year, being cut off and transfered to…

Switching and FIT

Npower Price Protector - no 5% cut
I've just found out that Npower are not including the Price Protector tariff in their latest 5% price cuts which take place today, so prices remain the same. This seems very mischievous after announcing the price cuts earlier this year. The Price Protector terms clearly state that prices would come down if reductions were…

Immersion Heater Switch
Hi all, I have just moved into a new flat which has Eco 7 heating etc. I have lived in a property with this before but the only difference is that had a dual element tank where as my new flat only has a manual switch. This is not a major issue because I also have a power shower so showers in the morning are not effected…

Worried about getting a repeat bill
I have been with Scottish Power for a number of years and they used to send a meter reader out each quarter, but lately sometimes they do and sometimes they don't. Anyway, last week I noticed that the next bill was due and so I called them with my meter readings just incase a meter reader didn't come. The bill came…

Really dim question about boiler settings
Hi all New here with what's probably a really dim question, so apologies in advance. I've been reading the threads about reducing gas bills with interest, as I've regularly been clobbered with large bills and I've come to the conclusion it's because I just don't understand my heating or how it works. Never have, really;…
