Are we predicting it's going to be high until Friday? This month's bill is going to be a stonker1

It's looking that way isn't it. I'm still just in credit at the moment for the month over the SVR but that's skewed by a very heavy use day on the 1st - with that removed the rest of the month would leave me just under £1 down, and that's going to be more significant by the end of the week I suspect!🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡

I'm still pretty well up for the month, but that includes the heavy use at the beginning of the month too. I think I might have been better off on Flux for the last week or so as I'd have been charging the battery at different times. But overall, it's still working out for me. I just need to get myself organised with a bit more automation!0

10p less on the s/c until March and as ultra low user that still makes it cheaper for me overall, wanted to drink less coffee so an excuse to cut back to a mere two cups a day (I did not realise until recently that my 800W microwave is actually consuming 1400W!)... also the CH seems to consume about 100W for the pump, etc as well so have not turned that on for its morning session.0
