    Evening all

    Thanks If for the kind wishes. Journey was ok, 2 hours there 2 back, but all sounding positive. Not looking forward to him working a 7 day week :(, but needs must at the moment. So fed up of struggling so much, feel bad for the kids who go without everything and don't complain bless em :o

    Sugar , good luck tomorrow with your arguing staff ! Nothing worse than a bad atmosphere at work!

    Now, glad to hear you enjoyed your break and all within budget :)

    Angie xx
  • well, just finished work - finally - seem to have been at it a long time today!!

    had an annoying conversation with EON, chap there doesn't understand why I don't want the prepayment meters, as they are about the same cost as standard tariff....yeah mate, thats the point - STANDARD TARIFF - I want my direct debit and online discounts, I'm currently paying about £40 a month more than I was before, and I don't like it!!!

    Hmmm, bet you don't TQ ! We had a prepayment meter in our old property and it was always more expensive.

    However Im currently paying £160 pm for gas and electric and Im sure im being ripped off, despite DD discounts etc....time to investigate a change I think.

    Hope you get something sorted.
