How much do you pay for Electricity?

I'm moving into my own home at the end of next month. It's Electric Central Heating (storage heaters). No gas in the house. Just found out it's a pre payment meter.
My long term plan is to get gas central heating. Also will want to remove the pre payment meter sooner rather than later.
My question is, can anyone give me an indication of what they pay for electricity in a month? Particularly if your circumstances are similar to mine. It's a terraced 3 bedroom house. Just me and my 2 boys and house will be mostly occupied although I work, on average, 3 x 12 hour shifts a week in which case my boys stay over with my parents.
Thanks so much.
P.S. Am a bit worried about the pre payment meter... is that going to work out more expensive?
