Hi, I live in a small house which in the past used £90 of electricity per month. Now on the same rate I'm going through £200 per month. The only item in regular use is the washer/dryer (Candy CSW 4852DE), could this be draining the electricity so dramatically? Thanks in advance

Octopus referral code for good cause
I'm going to switch to Octopus in the near future. There is a scheme whereby if someone refers a new customer using a unique code, the referrer and the referree both get £50. I'm wondering whether there is an charity or good cause that has a referrer code so I can benefit them when I switch.
