what is the daily service charge for pre-payment meters?

Hello
Can anybody tell me how much Scottish Power charge for daily service charge of pre-payment meters (gas and electric)?

  • If you have a Scottish Power supplied prepay meters, they are displayed on the meters, otherwise try a comparison website such as Ukpower.co.

    £100 for the standard tariff. (See page 6 of the pdf linked to on the bottom right of this page.) And for not-current tariffs check this page for previous tariffs.

    But enter your postcode in a comparison site to check if they offer any other prepayment tariffs.
  • def supplied by scottish power but it doesn't say on the actual meter.
    Your mention of £100 is this an annual charge. e.g. £200 for both gas and electricity / 365 days?

    You may have to have your payment card in the meter to check all the displays - standing charge will be on one of the screens.

    Yes, the £100 is per fuel per year - just over 27p per day.
