Electric Bills

Does anyone have any idea how much I should expect to be paying on an all electric 2 bed flat with regards to my electric bill. Have just moved in but awaiting bill! Dreading the bill if I'm honest :(

    Too many parameters to take a helpful guess.

    Read your meters and find out for yourself what different useage patterns consume.

    The good news is that being electricity only you can switch to the cheapest available tariffs and profit by keeping on your toes and not having to worry about cancellation fees.

    is it storage heating?

    during the summer, it won't be that much
    during the winter ... that's where the £s will be !
    Indecision is the key to flexibility :)

    Hi stoakesnicola - As other posters have said, there is not enough info to give a defined answer.
    However I have 3 relatives, who live in 2 bed ECO 7 flats and thier annual bills run at between £1000 - £1200 a year.
    Take your meter readings weekly to build up your history of consumption and then use this to seek a better tariff on the Switch sites
    All the best
