Thermostat meaning?
Sounds stupid, but I genuinely don't know what is meant when people say turn down the thermostat 1 or 2 degrees or reverse to warm up property, set to 18 or something. I have a combo boiler, a wireless timer, comes on and off certain time. If you want it outside I press button and switch off manually. The only thermostat…

Advice on long-term broken meter reading refund?
Hi there, I was hoping I could get some advice for an issue I’ve been having with my energy meter and company. I have lived in my flat since July 2020, and in December 2021 I realised that my electricity meter has been broken ever since we moved in. We’d been paying a dual day/night tariff, but the night tariff readings…

Variable rates when to fix again

With the new cap increases that it might be worth fixing again now as the new cap would certainly be higher than any fix you could get at this…

So Energy Fixed vs Variable
My fixed tariff (So Carrot) is coming to an end in March and I've been paying £138 a month, of which that seemed on the high side but it might've been because we were underpaying and so the increase was to pay off debit.

Why won't E-On Next perform credit checks?
We recently moved house last November 2021 which is on prepayment meters with E-On Next. They are refusing to run credit checks on us so that we can move to direct debit and a fixed tariff.
