I have been in touch with British gas who is our dual fuel supplier as I have been very concerned about how High our Electric Bills have been.
They told me to take some readings every day and call them back, the Readings were done at the time intervals shown and are Below :-

Day 1. 11am =33593
Day 2 11am =33606
Day 3 2pm =33626
Day 4 11am =33637
Day 5 9pm =33657
Day 6 1pm =33665
Day 7 10am =33676
Day 8 11am = 33691.

After these readings I called them and they said it was normal for a 4 Bed House.

Are they right,

Thanks,

Simon

    It's not unreasonable for sure. Your best bet if your concerned is to begin monitoring properly and reduce usage realistically without making your life uncomfortable.

    The size of your house is not important as you don't heat with electricity.

    100kWh(units) in winter is OK - just a little above the UK average. will cost around £9.
