    Maybe you can embark on an energy saving exercise. How many kWh of each is this based upon?

    Which means nothing by itself. Whats the unit cost of the electric and gas? What's the standing charge?

    I've just done my own calculation based on twelve years of monthly historical data and ,taking the average, I reckon my DD based on my consumption should be around £380 a month on EoN-Next's V18 tariff.(electricty only - at 54.1p/kwh and 37.92/day) I cant find out what V19 prices are.

    Actually they've under estimated my consumption by around 2000kwh a year and so their DD estimate of £290 is £90 too low making me around £1000 in debit at the end of the period. I've now put it up to £380 to avoid running into too much debit over the winter.

    By my calculations I will have paid £380 x 8 = £2660 by 1st April but I'll have used £3300 worth of leccy, leaving me the rest of the summer to bring it back into balance)

    My alternative to paying £380every month is to end up with bills around £600-£650 a month in December, January and possibly February depending on the weather - I'm just hoping for a mild winter.

    My calculations for this year were nearly spot on - we used £2102.39 and our DD payments of £190.86 came to £2099.46, just under £3 in debit
    BTW we did go around £350 in debit by the end of March but it's been paid off during the summer.
