'“…but if I fix my energy bill, will I be hit by a price hike ...”' blog discussion

You're right, I haven't.

Are you able to take a screen dump of it and obscure the personal info and upload the pic so we can have a look? Might be rocket scientists on here who could help.
Would probably be best to do that in a new thread.

Raphanius, assuming your usage from 20th October 2010 to 23th April 2011 is standard for the whole year, you use 34612 kWh a year of gas and 4464 kWh a year of electric.

Now, there's no way that these figures are going to be standard - you're obviously going to use significantly more heating, at least, during the winter than during the summer. So you could knock something off these figures.
Or, if you've got your bills going back further then that would enable us to give the real year's usage.
