    Managed a Hawaii yesterday after bad days at the weekend! And finally got my FIT contract through, 110 days after SSE confirmed receipt of my application.

    I want to change FIT provider already!

    Check this out, and still running; although it's nearly 0.4 O's behind; it just can't cope with Hawaii's or is it Hawaiis'..smiley-laughing021.gif

    Another Hawaii at last although the day was not particularly sunny that I noticed. I also have taken my first FIT reading and expect to get around £214 for the first quarter. EDF also emailed me my latest bill which is almost £300 in credit, and my direct debit will go down from £130 per month to £2 a month until October when my new fuel year begins..

    Wow!

    Electricity costs for June = £12.95 + £5.98 S/C = £18.93

    Gas costs for June = £00 + £5.98 S/C = £5.98...now how can I get them S/Cs down:think:
