You may well be right because as you know full well I don't think.

I looked into this 'essentials rate' in case I am missing out on something.
From what I read, I deduce that it was a lower rate available to benefit claimants only,
Entitlement to a range of Government benefits such as Pension Credit, Disability Living Allowance or Child Tax Credit, will act as the qualifying criteria.
and can no longer be applied for.

Since I was looking, I did a price comparison at two sites, and was glad I did.
I have changed supplier yet again and was just in time to collect a £100 credit (special offer expires tomorrow) in addition to a £70 annual saving, and a '£40 off' offer from Virgin wines.

I have to be in Burnley in the morning, so I thought I would check the weather forecast for tomorrow on the Telegraph Website. It shows light snow for Burnley and Blackburn and most other places it would seem in Lancashire,but not here in Accrington. I just don't understand that, how can you have snow in say Burnley and Blackburn and not here.

Mainly wireless in these modern times.
In my case that's one wire less than is needed for the machine to run.

This fact is wrong MargaretR peter told me about it and i phoned British Gas
they phone me yesterday asked a few questions and i am now on the 'Essentials' Rate and they have put me on something else but cant remember what
it means that if they have to dig the gas main up or electric cable they will make sure i am not without gas or electric
so yes it can still be applied for
