It's about time you sorted out that PC of yours! The online calculator uses javascript like this site.

Agreed but it uses javascript to call the Flashplayer and Ken68 has problems on this site (Thanks button etc.) which uses javascript but not Flash.

Well it may depend on what security you have on your system. On mine I have had to allow mobile code for the ukpower website in my firewall but your anti-virus may also be blocking scripts.
This is assuming that you have Flash installed.

If you do View, Source on the online calculator webpage, it calls for version 7. This facility was only written a couple of months ago so I guess that's why.:doh: Blue text on this forum usually signifies hyperlinks, so click on them!..:wall:0 -

Why are Energy Helpline telling me that EBICO are the cheapest when by your Powergen figures obviously make it not so. Must be to do with as mentioned the standing charge and how little you use.
EBICO prices...no standing charge including vat...8.68p
E 7 ...2.89p
Without E7......7.40pence.
and I use less than 1500 kwh per annum. There must be a point at which it pays not to be with EBICO.Only for light users it seems.
The prices I quoted for Gas. I assume yours must be for electric.
Age Concern is more expensive then powergens standard tariff. There primary rate is cheaper but the secondary rate more expensive.
If your a light user i would steer clear of Npower based on those prices.0
