    Hi again vclark 1 - Well done.
    Your actual consumption figures are on the low side of average, but just watch out for n'power - They could stop you switching with debt on the account and the Big, Big annual discount you get from them is based on you making 12 consecutive monthly D/D payments since the last bill on which they credited you with the discount.
    If you leave having made less than 12 D/D payments - Hey Presto, No Discount.

    You've done the homework and the good news is that you will be back on Qtly billing with EDF, so each time you get a bill you can add the consumption to the previous 3, and four times a year get instant annual use figures to throw at the Switch sites
    All the best
  • The one bit of advice that I will give you, is that when a company tells you "you will pay x a month" that is not a promise, they aren't saying that your payment is all inclusive, just that that is the default amount that they are taking off you as a direct debit.

    After you have been with them for a month, submit a meter reading so you can see now whether it is either too low or too high.

    Even if you do have to stay with NPower, see if they can't switch you to a tariff that is better than the standard one that you are on now
    It's not easy having a good time. Even smiling makes my face ache.

    I have got caught out by the supplier not setting it correctly and now paying 101 for 1 person in 3 bed semi and given I am not here most of time I is not best please especially as I never turn central heating on, shower as opposed to bath and have had energy saving bulbs and a rated appliances for some time and rarely leave lights on seriously stressed about it,

    There was a recent news report saying that lots of folk will not be able to afford fuel prices in years to come. It appears to be here already for a lot of us.
    I am responsible me, myself and I alone I am not the keeper others thoughts and words.
