978KwH usage for electricity - is this good?

On those consumption figures you should consider switching to Ebico.

Ebico doesn't give £105 back every 12 months for paying by direct debit so usually Npower is cheaper.

Your electricity usage is so low as to be unbelievable. 3kw per day? That's little more than £110 per year-£2 a week.

I can believe it...My summer usage is that @ 3.6kWh per day.

I can believe it too since my average over a year is just over 4 per day, the difference between the OP and me being that I'm in most of the day...

My gas is with Ebico and my electricity with NPower. I can live with the deferred discount and monthly DD for the electricity since my usage is fairly constant but I much prefer to pay for the gas I've actually use quarterly... I just budget for it and at least the money is in my account until needed rather than the utility company's Last time I checked, switching my gas from Ebico would save me less than £20 a year and would mean a compulsory monthly DD so I'd rather leave it as it is!

From what the previous 2 posters have said, it seems to be about right

Thank you for the advice, much appreciated. I am tied in at the moment, and am not sure whether in September next year I will move to do an industrial placement year elsewhere in the country. Hence, I don't want to get tied in with anyone else either anyhow.

I do have one more question. Does anybody know if the direct debit discount will be discounted on my final bill, if I terminate my contract a year to the day it started, or do I only qualify when my 12th direct debit goes out (I didn't have a payment go out till late October). If I get a placement, I'll be renting out the house to a family/couple before I can qualify for a discount, but it's not worth keeping the house empty for just £100 (as rent would bring in so much more money).
