  • It seems to me that most, is 90% of MSE eTarrif electricity posters count money not kWh when looking for annual TOU costs.

    It's really uncomplicated: kWh÷12=DD

    I'm sure 99% of all posters can see instantly their kWh use by month/season/year on their online bills. An easy calculation folks ! Best of luck.

    So 174.83kWh is collected from my bank account each month?
    I think not.  My bank won't even quote a kWh to GBP exchange rate !
  • Doesn't surprise me @ all Gerry !. Nowt to do with your bank DD is it ?

    kWh÷12=DD= an annual average £.s.d. just divide the annual £ by 12. But of course you already knew that didn't you.Gerry1 said:

    ((Annual consumption in kWh x pence per kWh) + (Daily standing charge in pence per day x 365)) x 1.05 / 12 / 100 = £MDD.
    This assumes it's not a leap year and that rates exclude VAT.
  • I signed up for smart pay as you go I owed nothing to anyone and almost 4 years later a whole lot of threats they refused to actually take me to court and fitted a classic prepayment meter in a home with only DWP benefits and 2 young children 2 of us long term sick or disabled and in 3 days it has cost me £93 in Electricity.
    E.on lied to the Ombudsmen services on many occasions they were found to be at fault in many areas 
    Now they are trying to attach a £5800 debt to my account when the actual figure is nowhere near that amount and  said I would use £63 of electric when my friends are in larger homes only paying £30 a week.
    They lie so much I have refused to make telephone calls with them and I am currently back with the Ombudsmen because I have a regular 3 bedroomed home and nothing unusual plugged in but there is no way on this planet a single person and 2 young children are going to use over £4000 a year on just Electricity

    CAC/annual consumption in kWh/annual estimated cost etc is all on their online bills as I'm sure you already knew Gerry. Boris/herd/age might stop me posting Gerry but you won't my friend. (+_+)

    Leap year ? Are you ok mate ?

    Fine, thanks.  I was merely pointing out that your "kWh÷12=DD= an annual average £.s.d." formula was seriously inaccurate because you had forgotten all the daily standing charges that have to be added on, all 365 or 366 of them.

    That would depend upon how much you are being charged per kWh for that electricity...
    Trying to compare how much you and your friends pay is not the way to do it.
    Compare how much electricity you actually use, based on real meter readings not estimates and then look and see what it costs and how much cheaper you could get that same amount of electricity elsewhere...

    DUP, but I am happy you are ok :^)
