What to do with my Combi Boiler?
Firstly, I'm completely new to this. All of it. Living alone and independently, financing, bills, utilities and boilers. I got thrown in the deep end just after turning 18 and a year later I'm figuring things out as I go as nobody really helps much... So if I seem like I don't know what I am talking about, it's because I…

Moved into house - unable to read electric meter
I moved into a property on the 10th July, and immediately raised a concern with the old owner regarding a digital electric meter not showing any reading. Their response was "oh, the battery must have died, I was warned about it". So we are in a position where we have no start reading at all. After a week of faffing around,…

Funded Solar
Anyone heard of or had any dealings with this company? They fit solar panels free of charge and recoup the cost through the electric they generate plus you receive a payment. After 10years the panels and all payments revert to you. Sounds ok but don't know if i'm missing something.

Unknown calls on BT phone bill
Apologies in advance, this is a long story. I live in a flat without a phone. I have a landline, but it is used only for my Internet, I do not have a phone connected to it and haven't for probably a good year (Owing to the amount of marketing calls I kept getting). So you can imagine my surprise when my last phone bill…

Please help with my gas situation
No not wind – far worst than that! A couple of years ago we were on a standard tariff with British gas which came to about £55 a month.
