Stuff you can do with spreadsheets
I was having a play around with a spreadsheet on Google Sheets the other day and knocked up a nifty tool to take the energy readings from the last two years (the time I have been at my present house), average them and create a forecast for the current year from the resultant data. The result for gas, as this is more…

SSE Superdeal
I am still on SSE Superdeal which is excellent because it gives my storage heaters a two hour boost in the afternoon. What is not excellent is that SSE know that I am reluctant to leave this service so have particularly cranked up the price over the last two years. In the MSE comparison site it shows that I am paying 39%…

I'm currently with BG on their temporary Mar 2020 tariff for both gas and electric so this new Energy Plus Protection Green Aug 2020v2 fixed rate deal looks very interesting. I also have their energy extra service which costs just over £4 a month although i havent used it for a good few years. The new deal says it comes…

Bulb Energy referral credit
I recently moved house and the previous owner was a customer of Bulb energy. He referred me to switch to Bulb which I did. Bulb won't honour the referral credit because the property was already supplied by them. There is no mention of this in the T&Cs for the referral credit. Very misleading. Needless to say I used the MSE…

Hi everyone, I have a problem I hope you can help me with? Both my gas and electricity were switched from utilita to scottish power without my consent. I contacted scottish power and was informed that I had been miss-sold although I didn't get asked or consented to switching my energy supplier. She went on to say that my…

Glow-worm second annual service
I am revisiting my previous thread relating to my Glow-worm boiler which is only 2 years old but has developed a defect that occurs in older units: the sudden rush of cold water during showering. In a recent annual service I mentioned this to the serviceman who suggested the shower unit itself might need descaling - I…

Industry Validation
I found this topic on a post dated 5 years ago so thought a new post might be good. I recently switched from tonik to avro. I submitted accurate meter readings on the required date. The electricity one was used but an estimate was used for the gas reading. These matched on final statement from tonik and initial statement…

'Green' Energy Supplier views?
Firstly, it's so much harder to search for a company with such a non-descript name like 'Green' that are in the green energy business :think: I'm weighing up my next Gas/Electricity move as my Ovo tariff is ending in a few weeks. I've been around the block and switched a few times over the years - BG, eon, EDF, Avro etc.…

I am in the process of buying a new build house. It has central heating throughout. I would like to get a wood burning stove in the living room. This is more for the look during those cold winter months. Does anyone have any thoughts on putting a wood burning stove in a room with central heating already? Can’t help but…

How can I cut down on energy usage?
Received my annual Energy statement today and notification that my fix is due to end, which triggered my price comparison I the new energy club. I usually do switch to a cheaper product so probably will this time too. However I noticed that apparently we are above average for gas. Apparently the average household uses…

Danfoss Thermostats
Hi All, I have just moved into a new property and have noticed I have two different Danfoss thermostats. There is one in the bathroom next to the boiler which is a Danfoss TS715Si which I believe controls hot water and heating but also in the flat I have two Danfoss TPOne-M thermostats. (1 in the lounge controls the…

Edf boiler cover
Has anyone got any experience (good or bad) with EDF Boiler/Heating breadown cover? It seems to be carried out by a company called Intana? I've just cancelled British Gas Homecare after being a customer for over 15 years due to price increases. I've tried haggling with them but they won't budge this time. The boiler is…
