Electricity Meter
The big switch on the right, does this mean any body with a meter box key could basically switch the whole power off to my new property? Not good.

The cost was approx £500 and I had to give my debit card details over the phone so that I would be charged back at the office.

Simply (NOT) Switch to Sainsbury's Energy
I used Simply Switch to switch to the Sainsbury's Energy tariff on 27th February. It occurred to me just before Easter that I hadn't heard anything since their email, so I chased it up. It would appear that Sainsbury's Energy did not receive, or did not act upon the order. So NOTHING HAPPENED! Has anyone else had a similar…

gas or electricity
A friend has moved into an unusual block of flats. The (gas) boiler in her flat is on its long legs and she is planning to replace it. However within the building, hot water is provided communally for all flats as part of the leases. So it is only heating that is needed. It occured to me when I heard this that a new gas…

Faulty electricity meter and estimated reading
I went to update my meter reading online. The readings were the same as the last quarter. I rang SSE and they said the meter was broken! They arranged for a new meter but said they would have to estimate the bill. This would be taken from an average over the last year. Last winters bill was more expensive because of the…

Very high gas and electricity bill
I live in a two bedroom flat, and my duel fuel provider is Southern Electric. Gas bill for the last 3 months (Dec -Mar) was £501 and electricity was £360. This seems very high especially as our gas boiler broke down and was off for three weeks in December before being fixed so I thought gas bill would be much less. Just…

NPower £300 credit gone when switching
When looking at our Npower package for Duel Fuel for around £126 a month, it appeared we could actually be paying £100 for the same fuel with Scottish Power so have switched our power to them.
