Arrears with Swalec?! Need Help
We are in arrears with both gas and electricity. We are currently paying £120 a month Gas and £80 a month electricity which includes the debt.
Im trying to work out, whats the currently monthly charge and how much debt i am paying off a month, we are trying to clear all debts asap but it doesnt say anything on the bill which explains this to me.
Also i would like to reduce the amount we pay of the debt each month to pay more of the higher apr credit cards etc we owe. Would any one know if this is possible?
Thank you in anticipation of your advise

How can anyone else know what is current consumption and what is debt clearance?
Your bill will show you the starting and finishing meter readings, so you can work out your actual consumption and cost during that billing period, but that doesn't tell you the debt still owing. Didn't you know that from when you agreed the debt clearance plan?No free lunch, and no free laptop

If you have the opening and closing readings for your most recent bill as well as the dates and unit prices, as well as details of any discounts, and the outstnading balance prior to the bill (balance brought forward) I can work out a farily accurate approximation for you.0
