After a look at our meter and some quick sums, I calculate the correct bill to be almost £780! That's about £95 a month since we've been here! We've got gas heating, but electric cooker, hob, dishwasher and tumble drier, but SURELY £95 a month for a 1 bedroom flat can't be right?!
I should also add the the flat has only got spotlights in the ceiling....13 in the living room/kitchen alone. I guess the bill doesn't sound that unrealistic after all...
We use 13kwh a day average summer. 16kwh average winter. Works out about £50 a month - how does that compare to what your meter told you?
Wow.. that's high!!
My case is 3 adults, 2 bed. Only Electricity. With British Gas Energy 6. About 150kW per wk. The bill comes up to about 11pounds a week. Not too bad I guess.
I sign up for Energy 6 with BG in Nov. Does that means it will last at least for 1 yr before they can change my contract?
Thanks...
Wow... that's huge bill!! I always do a weekly check on my actual usage.. just inc case i over use on something, i kno where to cut...
another alternative, change supplier.
