I am moving into rented and have been told that I have to go with British Gas and the landlord is considering prepay meter. I've looked into both pAYG schemes for British Gas but I cannot find what the difference is.

Is the click on online payment option as opposed to going to POst Office etc, and if so could I pay with visa electron card.

Thank you so much for any help.

  • No you still top up at usual outlets. You just get your annual statement online istead of via post. I think the saving is quite large for such a small differnce. I actually think click pay as you go elec is cheaper than standard electricity... I may be wrong though. :S

    If you have 2 prepayment meters you can go on to click which saves approx £70 per year. You can find the info on the BG website.
