Congrats!

My electric and gas are metered - I always buy much more than needed (better safe than sorry) but love the random rebates I get

Well no because you were averaging £10 a month which is really good

The time a man received a utility bill. What a wonderful tale. These are the kind of threads that get recalled and I shall look back upon this with great fondness.

Dafuq?! I was in a 1 bed flat and the gas and electric bills were closer to £200 each every 4 months! Switched to a meter and averaged out at about £5/week if we didn't put the heating on

10£ a month for gas is brilliant mate......we have installed solar hot water, PV electric lights, air source heat pumps for heating, grey water recycling and have oil burner heating as back up that runs on homemade fuel.

Electric works out around £500 a year.

Water £20 a year

no gas

And about 350 on homemade fuel for boiler but that also runs my van

wonder if it was an estimated bill and soon you will get a bill for another £300?

my gas was £26 then a month laster i got a similar bill, thought it was the same bill and they'd got late payment but it wasn't they had just estimated the first one and then actually read my meter so sent a proper bill then.

my electric bill just keeps going up, despite me using less electric all the time to save money on that. past two years i have not used electric for my heating but my bills stayed the same. they aren't estimated.

and why does the guy who reads the electric meter always not lock the box after so it bangs about it the wind at night? he has a key to open it so should lock it when he's finished.

If I kept swapping providers everytime one said they could save me money, eventually they would end up owing me money

I put over 45quid a week in my gas meter and 25-30 on the electic. Over the cold periods I can put anything up to 70quid in the gas a week x

So I'd say that was excellent

]I've just got my gas and electricity bill today for the last 4 months and my gas was £46 & electricity bill was £130 I think that I did very well !Was checking my British Gas accounts recently and noticed that I was £800 in credit. Another account was£300 in credit . It seems that when British Gas set their Direct Debit charges they make them as high as possible . Well done to the original poster for being energy conscious and saving the environment . I assume he lives in the house and was not freezing cold in the winter or maybe has a coal fire .

. It gives us a chance to think about our own utility bills and how efficient or inefficient we are and to make comparison with other members .

Ours varies between Summer and Winter obviously, but it roughly averages out over 12 months at about £630 each for gas and leccy, we have gas central heating and hot water, and leccy shower and the rest. We don't have the heating on full blast in the Winter, we experimented with a few different settings and times and got it so we are comfortable most of the time, although in extremis we do have to put the heating on more if the temp plummets for long periods.

Well one person was sceptical enough and intrigued enough to contact. They now pleasantly surprised by the amount of saving making and how easy it is

Nope ... inlet and outlet are still inch bsp on a standard U6 gas meter but the later meters do include protection against reverse flow

Our are both on prepay meters.

Last few weeks, £15 gas and £12 electric.

Have to admit, I have a 200watt light on for my terripins 12 hours a day, think that uses about 1/2 our electric

Your 200w lamp will cost you 1 unit of electricity for every 5 hours it is in use - so at a guess approx 3.2p per hour based on 16p per unit of electricity
