EDF Gas smart meter not sending readings
Afternoon. A few months back we got SMETS2 smart meters installed through EDF. The gas meter has never sent readings, or connected to the IHD. I believe one of the main reasons this can happen is that the gas and electric meters are too far apart. I would be surprised if this was the case in my house, as they are only…

Solarplicity Switched My Tariff Without My Knowledge
I was a solarplicity customer and I switched to them because they offered no standing charges on their tariff. Perfect for me as I was using hardly any gas or electric during this time. First I heard about them going into administration was an email from Toto welcoming me. I had no correspondence from Solarplicity on this…

Switching to fixed deals and confusion at what we're really looking for
I made a very similar post 2-3 years ago, and whilst I somewhat got it, from the responses, now in the same position, a few years later, I feel exactly as I felt then. Basically just definitive clarification needed most likely for my own stupidity. Assuming; we're looking to switch to another fixed deal, be it 1 or 2…

All Electric Flats
Built in 2006 open plan 2 bed GF of 3 storey. Would like to know if anyone living in a similar flat could tell me what to expect for energy bills. There would be 2 of us living there. I am concerned also whether the small wall heaters do keep it warm.

Price comparison and smart meters
When using the price comparison tool there is no indication whether the tariff requires that a smart meter be installed as a condition or not. I recently signed up to an SSE tariff using the MSE site and there was no indication that having a smart meter fitted was a condition for having the tariff. The MSE site should be…

Energy provider and FiT payments
Our existing energy provider is OVO. We pay 14.5p per kW and feed-in-tariff is registered with them. Our DNO IS Scottish Power and they won’t fit an Economy 7 meter. Our contract with OVO is coming to an end, and they want to increase our fee to 15.7p. I was going to shop around, and if I find a new cheaper provider does…

Switching sites
Is it me or do switching sites like Switchcraft and Uswitch try to lock you into advanced payment direct debits. Currently my energy is paid when I get the bill, by direct debit. These payment systems dont seem to be available on switching sites! All the deals are in advance direct debit which is why a lot of people build…
