    TD,hi, surely the estate agent knows?

    For Water go to Uswich and put in your postcode,

    http://www.uswitch.com/Water/index.aspx?ref=moneysavingsexpert&SessionID=ocC2Yors6lHvdKH2M8HeteOAdLPkDlCt

    Go to second page and look in drop down boxes to see possible supliers and sewage companies in that area, the two may not be the same as I have discoverd,( oh to be supplied by the York lot.)

    Scat ;)
    Moi....? ;)

    To find out who currently supplies gas to your house contact M-Number on 0870 6081524 - think you need your meter reading.

    M-number is the meter point reference number, a unique identifier of each supply point on Transco's national database

    To find out your electricity supplier contact M-Pas on 0845 3300889 with your meter reading as before.

    ;)
