        I eat a lot of curries so does that mean we should have a heating credit bill, or am I just talking a lot of hot air through my Uranus

          ON TOPIC:-
          What about the standing charge for the gas and electric?

          Often thought of modifiyng a water pump and a generator, use the water pressure from tap to make power, who carres, water rates ?500, get your moneys worth

            Probably sh*gs day and night to keep warm *shrug*

            iFred, collect your farts in a bag, set them on fire to turn a turbine and you'll have free heating and electricity.

            Solar would be the cheapest form except the prices are kept high for PV units so that people can't buy them very easily, on top of that to get any sort of grant etc you have to use a company that will charge you an arm, a leg and maybe an eyeball to fit them - again it keeps cheap solar power ou of the grap of everyone. Probably designed that way. Wonder how many electricity companies have shares in PV panel makers and fitters *shrug*
            My master plan is to live forever..... going to plan so far
            Despite the cost of living, it's still very popular.

                This women lives in a council house in Oldham.. they're new builds and the house is completely air tight!

                I think this is a con tbh the standing charge for fuel a year is more than the ?20 she is expecting..

                It wouldn't surprise me if she gets a high bill and she will be stuck paying a debt off for a few year!

                The news article doesn't even state how this can be achieved.. something smells fishy in all this..

                  I've not read the story because I'm to f'ing lazy.

                  But new builds are notorious for having the wrong meters fitted.

                  When the planning goes through & the mains gas & elec are plumbed into the street. Each plot is designated a certain meter identified by the serial numbers. Plots numbers get changed to house numbers, but not always in a logical way. Then the gas/elec fitters come in & grab the first meter they see get their hands on, without checking the serial numbers.

                  So the chances are she will have elec serial 00001 for her property, but serial 00148 fitted to the house. If the meter with serial 00001 hasn't been fitted yet then she will only be paying for any standing charges that may apply. Meanwhile, someone a street over is screaming at their supplier because of ?500 bills when they've been away for the past 3 months in Africa.

                  I used to work for a local board on customer services. These things are a nightmare to resolve & need about 3 visits before someone finally comes back with the right information to resolve the problems.

                    OK, susspose your cirrect - you normally are - so is the address on the bill say house number 50 (correct serial 000148) then when it was read would it not have house 50 you have used ?50 pay up now.


                    Also if council house would it not be a 'insert coin' pay as you stalk.

                      I wish I could answer your question. But the internal workings of the energy companies defies all know logical reasoning & common sense.
                      But it would look like they only use the meter serial number & never tie it too the street & house number.

                        So what your saying is the TWO water meters i had once from drunk night outs, could have got the address and claimed by fake Rolex watches back - both times?
