    Can't figure out what cashback quidco are offering on BT, at the top of the page lots of deals all listed separately all saying £180, further down only 180 for full package inc mobile, less for other packages. Are the ones at the top a special offer or is it the ones at the bottom that are the truth?
    I think....

    I believe they are of similar size to current credit meters if I were you and you were thinking of smart meters I would wait for the roll out of smets 2 which is the 2nd generation of smart meters only reason behind it, if you switch with the current smart meters they lose there smart functionality and you have to read them manually 2nd generation smart meters allow you to switch and keep the smart functionality. The in home display can be put anywhere in the house but some are advised to keep near to where your meters are
    To be honest I know that some of the online tariffs are better than prices being offered with smarts, iv not had them installed yet and not rushing lol

    I have had multiple calls of people saying the boiler wouldn’t come back on after engineers have exchanged the meters and for most we’ve had to get engineers out and fix it, I think they are good for those who want to watch their energy usage to try and cut back but my personal opinion is if you already watch and cut back where you can then smart meter (other than tariff) isn’t going to help that much. Also if your meters are quite far away from each other your gas might not be smart because it piggy backs off the electric meter to send data over
    Hth

    late last year, it was said it was going to be at the start of this year. thats now passed. totally agree its best to wait. what a waste of resources and money to carry on fitting ones they know will have to be replaced.
    im happy to wait. even though i want one

    hi sorry just seen this now had another busy day made worse with snow :eek::eek:. and no where was gritted, there where a lot of crashes and delays on the road.

    keep it simple tm
    lentil shepherds pie with sweet potato mash is a decent main that we have found most meat eaters will eat as well,it was our most popular dish at cafe. and serve roast veg etc. or did you want something posher,for breakfast cereal is a good stand by with soya or rice milk:rotfl::rotfl: but if you want to do a fry up for everyone get linda maccartney sausages, fried mushrooms, tomatoes hash browns , beans you can also do scrambled torfu,add some veggies etc, but I dont rate it personally.

    if you want lentil shepherds pie recipe or something else let me know xxxxx

    Thank you Rhos....I’m going into panic mode. The Linda McCartney sausages are on offer in A £1.25 with CB on TCB.

    I’ve got breakfasts sorted now thank you. I’m thinking onions carrots celery etc with the lentils herbs and spices?

    The Sunday Roast might look a little different this weekend:o:)
