Increase of electricity bills
My electricity bill was increased by £25 this month. The only difference is I have bought a new fridge/freezer with low consumption, new kettle and use of plug in door bell. Am puzzled these could not have increased my consumption by that much. Am paying £90 a month average 3 bed and two of us.
