Looking for EV Electricity only tariff
I have looked in the Cheap Energy Club for an EV tariff, i.e. pay less over night. The results do not help very much as EV tariffs are not shown. When going to energy company sites they don't show their EV tariffs - easiest way found is to google the company with EV tariif. I currently am on Ovo with their Charge Anytime.…

Smart Meter
Since I had my new smart meter installed, it has been a nightmare, I have to charge £10 weekly and it runs out even when I am not at home for months, and every electrical item fridge etc is turned off. I have complained several time to British gas, and they have not even sent someone to check it out

Octopus dodgy meter changed and high bills refunded but need help with new charges.
Hello, Background I am helping a friend try to sort out their energy bill with Octopus. It's the electricity that has been the problem, so I will focus only on electric, even though he is dual fuel. At one stage in 2024 he had over £1,000 in credit (silly he now realises). It went from there to him being charged £2,171 for…

Can I be forced to have a smart meter?
Hi, I'm new here so please forgive any faux pas... but here goes. We have solar panels on the roof, which don't make us a huge amount of money; but they make us more than they would otherwise because we have an old analog meter which actually rolls backwards while the panels are generating juice. Obviously we'd like to…

Energy and Broadband comparison with Spain

does this reading of a polypipe manifold gauge ok?
Hi I don't know what got to me and now I'm overthinking. I moved from thinking about replacing the flooring of the whole downstairs to researching my underfloor heating system (wet). Upon digging, I have the drawings and the zones and I can see the manifold under the stairs. The gauge reading is on 33PSI. Google says this…

Thermaflow Boiler - Wet Electric Heating Tariff

Unpaid bill by tenant
A tenant has moved out of one of my properties without paying his fuel bill. What is strange is that the bill has been in the name of someone who has never been a tenant there. I don’t want to go into too much detail as it is quite unusual in other ways, and it may be connected to something else, but I need to know how he…
