Converting RHT meter from eon to a plug socket
Hello, I have a flat, 1 bedroom that has electricity only. There's no option for gas in the flats. I currently have an old underfloor heating system that takes 3/4 hours to heat up which I think is 5kw.

Heat Logs, Bricks, Briquettes 2018
Just wanted to get the views and thoughts of the supermarkets and similar stores offerings this winter. On the weekend I stocked up with some KINGS Heat logs from Home Bargains for £2.99 for a pack of 6. My view on these are they seem similar to the Aldi heat logs sold last winter, the six logs in a pack are too big for my…

Hello We have recently moved into our new house, where we were told our boiler had a 7 year warranty. However, the boiler hasn't been serviced since it was installed (17/4/2016) We called Baxi and they told us that because it had not been serviced the warranty was void.

Hi all, Between 2012-2014 when I was a student I was renting a house with some friends and our contract stated that we were not responsible for any of our utility bills and that this was all to be paid by our landlord.

Problems with HHR storage heaters
Hi I have recently had my meter changed to economy 7 tariff and had high heat retention storage heaters (Elnur) installed.

I have tried to charge the heat up when it…

Ovo Energy Homeplan
Has anyone got recent experiences with Ovo Energy's CORGI HomePlan? On the face of it, it beats British Gas Homecare products by a country mile for very much the same service. Is it too good to be true.

Lounge radiator won't come on unless I turn on the hall radiator - why?
Edit: Hoping this is the right forum, wasn't really sure. Just started using central heating again since the weekend. I only ever heat the lounge and bathroom but neither of them want to come on unless I turn on the one in the hall. I never needed to do that last winter or the one before that. If I do leave the hall…

Ongoing problem with British Gas Invoice
I have had an issue with a British Gas invoice that has rumbled on since July and I'd really appreciate some advice on what more I can do. Sorry this is long...

Consistently underquoted energy costs
I use the MSE energy quote system each year and each year it consistently and massively under quotes my dual fuel cost for the year. I pay by direct debit and the company I move to get the amount of the direct debit wrong too and always on a 12 month fix. Both my predicted gas and electric consumption figures proved to be…
