They already have been drawn!

Your posts are patronising and rude in equal measure!

To help save money:

Turn everything off on standby e.g. microwave, TV, video, top box, stereo, etc., (uses approx 30% of electric)..............

If the average user consumes 3500kWh per annum, you are saying that 30% of this could be save by turning various standby items off.

What items do you have that use 3500 x 0.3 = 1050 / 356 = 2.877kWh per day? 2877 Watts per day!

(If u want to have fun - check each appliance separately with meter- I did).

So can we assume that simple arithmetic is not one of your strong points then?

You can not divide the £800 by 36 to get an 'average' of £22 because the price is not fixed. You should only be dividing the Jibbles' consumption over three years. As this information has not been provided, both of our estimates are just that - approximations. That calculation is a stalemate, certainly not checkmate to you. And I doubt it is even a draw - I am pretty sure my estimate is likely to be much closer than yours. (What is most confusing of all is that you recognise this argument yourself in post #28 but only apply it to my figures, not your own! As you wrote, "[l]et me share the delight of your calculations being wrong. You have doubled op's usage, (in money) instead of the price of gas" but in the same post you thirty-sixthed op's arrears (in money) instead of thirty-sixthing their usage.)

Your other two "Who do you think is right?" questions are simply nonsense and wrong and do not require an answer.

I've no idea what you mean by 'spoiling the forum' - you're the one using abusive language and altering earlier posts after the fact to substantially alter their information. I've a mind to report you for - shoe-horning your bugbear into irrelevant threads; editing earlier posts that have been replied to to substantially alter their meaning; aggressively abusing a poster - surely greater breaches than whatever it is (I'm still not sure what) you are accusing me of.

Of course the Jibbles will be altering their consumption to reflect that prices are higher nowadays than three years ago - but that's for a future, not today's bill.

I did not understand the reply to your question, so hope this helps:

Just say NO!

Remove the idea that they are all powerful. If a person approached you and asked you for your money for nothing, you would say NO! Keep that image in mind.

Pay off the £20 immediately, removing the excuse to increase your d.d.

Telephone, refuse the increase, based on their overestimate, and either offer an increase based on your usage, or no increase & use less gas. (See my posts on handling bullies on telephone). You can work out your usage by dividing 'Total gas charges this period' by 'Gas used' on your bill - gives approx cost of 1 unit, based on meter readings.

Hope this helps, let me know.

Kind regards

Hi Jenny,
thanks for the advice. i rang them back up and spoke to someone who understood where i was coming from and I now have a DD in line with my own estimations.

so i am much happier now.


As a side note they had assumed that i would be using approx 1/2 of the higher priced units and2/3 of the lower priced units in 6 months.


thanks

Cheers Kim, Cardew.
Can't be bothered with Jenny's replies - better to slap custard.

re: #30. Thank you for being Smug, Pompous & Perfect. Nobody wants to hear you gloat, judge & Condemn. Suggests, inferiority.
mrjibbles asked for help. What did YOU offer him?

JennyCourage

I did not realise you were being Sarcastic, your post#14 and my sincere reply #16.

Re. your post #49. Glad to see you are bowing out re. my posts #36 and #41. in reference to Martin Lewis.

I would ditch the signature 'head working' if I were you!

JennyCourage

o.k. I am happy to be wrong. What is the 'standby %'? (I will not waste my time checking it)

Thank you for jumping on the bandwagon, and not addressing the real issue. I have no problem being wrong. I can add up.

Did you help mrjibbles? Or anyone in this thread?

Or just jump on the bandwagon to hurt JennyCourage?
