Smart meter not working properly for over 2 years - EDF now want £900!
Hi all, hope you are well. If this kind of question has been answered before, or I'm posting it in the wrong place, please let me know. To make a long story as brief as I can; my 70+ year old dad gets his energy from EDF. In August 2017, he had a smart meter fitted for electric and gas. I had a look at it then and several…

High electric usage/bill
Hi all, I hope someone can help me figure this out. Our electric Bill's have always been high and we put it down to having electric heating, we have the new Fischer heaters. But I've always thought that we were using a crazy amount none the less. My husband thinks I'm going mad. We have a 4 bed as part of an old granary…

British Gas Nightmare
So I've been with BG for Gas only for 18 months. My old dumb meter was never read so always estimated bills. In October they said I was paying too much and made my payment £5 a month.

EON Smart meter and Inhouse display
Having recently had a SMETS2 smart meter fitted by EON, they give a nice little inhouse display (IHD) unit (made by Chameleon) to show your usage currently and historically. Splendid ! So when the engineer left me he said "I did put your IHD in the kitchen, but it didn't seem to get a connection....so I moved it to the…

VAT on electricity on a marina mooring
Hi, I moor my boat in a small residential marina in the north west and the owner is charging us 35p a unit for electricity plus 20% VAT which makes it an eye watering 42p a unit. When asked she said it had 'gone up' and was 'the best deal she could get'. We all think this isn't true and that she's adding money on to this.…

Problems with Eon - and the switch hasn't even gone through yet!
I changed from Scottish Power to Eon about 3 weeks ago through Martin's Cheap Energy Club website. I was a bit worried about leaving Scottish Power as I'd had no problems with them or their website but I wanted a better tariff. So I started the switch and received a letter from Eon about a week later to say I could now…

High Electric Bill
Bill for this month was £155 which im guessing is way too high for a 1 bed flat with one person residing in it ? I logged in online and can't go back as far as this time last year but the obvious trend is during the winter it's high and in the summer its as low as £37 I suspect the fact one of my large electric heaters has…
