Moving House and Pre-payment Meters
We're moving house this weekend and to-date have never been on pre-payment meters. They are currently on British Gas it seems and a card/key have been provided for each. So do we need to phone BG and register our details? Or do you just keep topping up as and when? If we want to change suppliers then do we get a new card &…

Something we have noticed is that if we top up £10 it only seems to add £9.69 or around that figure, is this normal? We have also noticed that it seems to use a stupid amount over night. For e.g I am on annual…

Energy provider customer service

The first was because I thought they dealt with my boiler (they didn't - it was my landlord that was liable) and the other time was because I couldn't access my online account. So my question is, why is customer service such a big factor that would have…

Air Source Heat Pump Reviews?
I can't find anything current on this so I thought I'd see if any one could advise me on Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHP). I know the new government intensive has changed the game a wee bit and, since I'm re-mortgaging, I was thinking of taking an extra bit to pay for the ASHP. I don't know anyone with a system and everyone…
