You do seem to have an Electricity Meter on an E7 tariff - quite why when you have gas I don't know.
Can you try and read the meter please - you may have to press either 9 or 6 several times. What you are looking for are screens with kWh and R1, R2 and total on them.. Ignore anything which says kVArh or kWAh or similar.Never pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill0 -
@ibiza1984 Watch out for the decimal point !
PS You have one of the most unfriendliest of meters - I had to read my MIL's with a torch under the stairs.Never pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill0 -
Could hubbie double check R2 - at 6055 it is less than the Sept reading of 7253. Could it be an 8 not a 6 ?
R1 for Sept to yesterday is 10442 - 9156 = 1286 (approx 2500 for a year £400)
If R2 is 8055 then the R2 becomes 8055 - 7253 = 802 (approx 1500 for a year ) £75 A little high but you do have a new baby
and all becomes very average for gas heated house Add Standing Charges and VAT - a total bill for year of £850 ??
E7 is possibly beneficial - the issue seems to be the initial reading. What does the final bill from your previous supplier say
Make sure the immersion heater is off - much cheaper to use gas
A question do you have an electric shower ?Never pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill0 -
@Robin9 this is the issue, sept 7253 is an estimate I’ve attached a photo confirming it’s definitely 6055
yes to electric shower, gas charges I am not questioning as that was a cold winter and I have the heating on most days. And it’s actual readings - Just the electric showing as estimated
