How much prepayment meter

hmc

Hi there
Can I ask the people on prepayment metres what they are putting on every week at the moment please?
I know they are supposed to be more expensive and the weather has changed a lot but I'm putting £15 a week on each minimum at the moment

£40 on electric if I'm lucky & about £12 on gas.

This time of year? Depends on your heating and cooking arrangements.

Last time I was on prepay, it worked out at around £3-4 a day electricity and up to a fiver a day in gas, dependent on how cold it was outside.

So, £25-ish electricity a week and £30-35 gas.

we are all electric, economy 7 for storage heaters and hot water. Putting in £30 a week at the moment and around £15 when heating is not on.

I'm gas for heating and hot water only. Electric for everything else, and use very little hot water as the dishwasher and shower are electric. I also have one of those funky Nest thermostats and a boiler that's only a few years old. Heat was on for 179 hours in November.

Currently using about £2.30 a day in gas. At the start of last month it was more like £1.70, the month before that it was basically nothing except the standing charge.

Electric is £2.08 a day and doesn't fluctuate much.

I don't have as accurate figures for December as I got rid of my prepay meters recently, so no-longer do daily meter reads for my spreadsheet. Recalculating my prepay meter reads with the tariff I'm now on, the saving is about £7 a month.
