Hi,

I've just got a new place.
The gas connection is with British Gas and it is a pay as you go meter with a card.
I've never had this type of meter before. 
Wondered if any one can help me decide the best thing to do.
Is it more expensive with a pay as you go card? 
Would it be more cost effective to get rid of this and get a normal meter fitted?

Thanks

Colin
