    Hi,

    Thanks for pointing out that I got the numbers the wrong way around!

    I am in the North (West Yorkshire) and am being quoted based on 6,047kWh annual use electric (I expect this to at least half when my daughter and her partner move out in June), and15802kWh gas, which again will reduce due to 2 less people showering/bathing daily and having to heat the house when my daughter is working through the day in winter.

    So far, these are the exact figures I have been quoted:

    Use your annual usage to calculate the bill for each version whether it's the SVR or a capped price rate, 
    Just in case it causes any confusion, I don't think you meant what you said there since the two options in bold are the same thing.
