Gas = 4969
Electric = 58609

Everything is electric except hot water. We are on pre-payment meters and have spent £50ish on standing charges for the gas.

All the money we put on the gas meter goes to the standing charge it's just stupid!

    Use a comparison site to find best deal - not all suppliers charge a separate daily standing charge

    You could have had that gas for about £11.00 from Ebcio (or perhaps £35 if an old imperial meter) ... and everyone on here keeps posting about how expensive Ebico are compared to other suppliers!
