Moving to all electric house - best options?
I'm buying a house & the only energy connected to the property is electricity. It needs a fair bit of work all round, so within reason, I'm pretty much viewing any initial outlay to get it as I need it as part of the purchase price - (since a home with everything sorted would cost me significantly more anyway). I'm trying…

Hi all, Here's hoping you can help as E.on customer service wouldn't answer my question. I recently (November) had a smart meter from Bulb. I'm now moving to E.On, should this meter still work with them or will they most likely want to come and swap everything again? I'm pretty sure my current meter is gen 2 as it replaced…

State of play with Smart Meter installations
I've held off getting a smart meter installed until at least they came out with one that worked no matter which supplier you're with. Ovo seem to now be doing that. However I'm still not totally convinced and not sure how to advise my elderly parents ( 88 and 91). At the moment I get their readings and enter them online…
