Does my bill look big in this?
Hello, I wonder if someone could advise me regarding my electricity consumptions which I feel are unusually high and appear so, when compared with readings of friends and family's bills. We (or rather our landlord) had a new boiler fitted at the tail end of last year and also had a smart-meter installed at the same time. I…

Thinking about getting Gas installed
Any rough ideas how much it is to install gas for a 3 bed semi? Does the price vary from property to property, or is there a generic rough idea price for a property as I mentioned? I am based in NI so appreciate prices based on location will certainly vary. I am starting to think about it.. I have about half a tank full of…

What a balls up with smart meters
Hi, I'm pulling my hair out trying to understand this problem I'm in. Last year, when we with Iresa, we had a problem, and Iresa fitted a smart meter, but I remember the engineer saying to me " I haven't set it up nor calibrated it yet, but someone will come back, set it up and give you a console so that you can see what…

npower overcharged
I’m in a bit of an odd situation and was wondering what my best course of action should be. I switched from npower back in June 2017. I received all the paperwork confirming the switch was successful and began being charged by my new energy supplier. However, I only recently noticed that npower continued to take payments…

OK becoming a new customer with same boiler care provider to get offer?
My scottishpower boiler cover is up for renewal in just over a month and to get the same cover as a new customer is £52.50 cheaper. So I'm thinking of applying as a new customer (with the possibility of £31.50 cashback too) . I'd do this in a few days time so there's a one day break between contracts plus I' d be covered…

Gas meter reading gone up by 400k
Hi all, My girlfriend recently submitted a gas meter reading and remarked to me that something seemed off. She said it had gone up massively. It's her house so she deals with bills and readings etc. However she said she struggled to understand the readouts and asked me to have a look. It's an old school imperial meter…

OFGEM CAP Vs BGas Fix Tariff
I might be an old cynic but not 2 days after the news item about the OFGEM Price Cap BGas writes to me offering yet another fix - my current one does not end until March 2019 - so they are a bit ahead of themselves? I was still thinking about their letter when today the Daily Mail reports several suppliers now only…

British Gas Customer Services Appalling
Tried 3 times/3 no's with a wait of 35 - 59 mins on all. Unacceptable. Am querying a Late Payment Fee on an estimated bill issued at 28 days. As this is a rental property and tenants had vacated whilst I was on holiday, I didn't pay this bill as I wished to visit to check property and take a current reading and couldn't…

Unit rates Standing Charges
Hi I did a Cheap Energy Club comparison. Aside from the Standing Charge being 2p cheaper in comparison to my current provider, the unit rate was higher however supposedly I can make a saving.

Refresh energy - free boiler
Hi has anyone had a free boiler installed with refresh energy? It seems like a good offer, free boiler and installation, free led lights you just have to stay with them for five years. I'm always skeptical of offers like this so wondering if anyone had experience with them. Thanks
