    That is not unusual for 8 hrs usage. I use my gas boiler for about half your time and I pay approx £30.00 a month by D/D so you are about right.
    Loan-£3600 only 24 months of payments to go!!!
    All debt consolodated and cards destroyed!!
    As D'Ream would sing 'Things.....can only get better'!!!

    May be a dumb question, but have you given them any readings lately??

    Just mention it because that would imply (assuming they refund any credit say annually) that you are using only £210 worth of energy/standing charges per year...

    The standing charge (or equivilant in tier 1 units) would come to between £100 and £150 :confused:

    Yeah a put I reading in just before christmas and I caught the meter guy about a month ago who took the latest readings. I have my heating on for about 2hrs in the morning and about 4 hours at night. Well thats during the winter, but through the summer I never use the heating. I turn it off. The gas still comes on for hot water etc though. So thats maybe how my cost is kept down.
