Re: Gas?
 

im on prepay and i put in £15 a week....i put the heating on at 6 and turn it off when i go to bed....

Re: Gas?
 

....so £60 a month.....well it must be right , because thats what N Power are asking off me now:(

Re: Gas?
 

if you are being billed shouldnt it be cheaper than pre-payment?

Re: Gas?
 

I use a card i pay at PP...monthly

Re: Gas?
 

There is another thread about this somewhere, I think entwisi started it, the cost of your gas bill will be massively variable from one house to another, number of people, amount of cooking, hot water useage, heating usage, glazing, insulation, etc, I know that emmamums system was not very economical, the boiler itself is about 70% efficient at best, if you have a condensing boiler, it could be well over 90% efficient. I could go on and on, again, but i wont lol.

Re: Gas?
 

139 pounds a month on gas

Re: Gas?
 

Damn ... and I thought I was going to read a funny discussion on flatulence:mad:

Re: Gas?
 

:eek: chuffin ell :eek:

i too am on a pre pay (and i wouldnt be doing without it EVER) and i put £50/£60 in a month, depending on how warm i wanna be, Reece doesnt like being warm for some strange reason, radiators give him a headache, so i just try to put them on to warm the house up, then switch them off soon after.

I have my hot water on perminantly too

Re: Gas?
 

what do you have?...a mansion??:eek::eek:

Re: Gas?
 

Hi Panther, I pay £33 per month, but you should bear in mind derekgas's remarks. And before you ask I'm with Scottish & Southern.

Re: Gas?
 

well i have a three bedroomed house, which as 8 radiators in it, a condenser boiler and i only use the heating at night!

Oh a fire in the living room, but i i have an electric cooker.

What do you have ...a flat?

Re: Gas?
 

I am very snug with 24C temp and hot water - both for 24 hrs a day
Small flat with an efficient new boiler £60 a month for both gas and electricity (dual fuel tariff)

Re: Gas?
 

Hi again Panther, I have a three-bedroom bungalow with a gas fire, gas central heating powered by an old back boiler (baxi bermuda springs to mind), and a full gas oven. We are two adults, no kids, and we're retired. Whilst we don't have a hothouse we certainly don't get cold, we just try to be sensible with the old thermostat.

Re: Gas?
 

are you on a special tariff?? my grandparents are on a tariff here they pay the same amount every month so what they pay for but dont use over the summer covers the extra that they use in the winter

Re: Gas?
 

The cheapest tariffs are the ones where-
1. you manage your bills online by providing meter readings when asked
2. you have a dual fuel supplier - both gas and electric form same supplier
3. you pay monthly by direct debit at a rate which is an average of a whole years use

Re: Gas?
 

Approx £28 a month. I leave the heating set so that it warms up if it drops below 17 degC but as I am out at work all day it keeps the cost down. Same with my leccy wich is approx £25 a month.

Re: Gas?
 

I pay £151 a month for both gas and electric from scottish power.
my gas went up £49 2 months ago...even though we are on a fixed price till may 09...they are looking into that but whilst they are we have to pay the new amount...poor stuff all round really..

Re: Gas?
 

I wish!!

3 and a half bedroom semi dormer bungalow.
Big windows and old boiler. Son and self work from home so there is nearly always someone in and I dont like being cold

Re: Gas?
 

So some of those heating costs can be offset against profit in your tax returns, can't they?

Re: Gas?
 

£110 a month on dd for both from Scottish Power, I am currently about £80 in credit though! And to be fair I have the radiators on for 8 hours a day ! I don't see the point in being cold!

Re: Gas?
 

we were always £69 in credit a month but goodness knows how long that will be for since they have hiked up the prices..

Re: Gas?
 

nothing:D:Dhave oil central heating:D:D supplied by a local supplier:)

Re: Gas?
 

British Gas announced last week that they are reducing the price of their gas for customers.

I pay £40/month, direct debit, for my gas and it's a 3 bedroom house. I have a combi boiler (just heats water as I need it), but only have the heating on in the evenings, as I'm out at work all day.

Re: Gas?
 

Re: Gas?
 

Well like i said i pay £60 on gas now and £50 on electric.....a month so beware if ya not got ya bill lately be prepared to be shocked especially if ya use a lot of fuel!!

i was paying £40 on me gas before, and £40 on me electric,....now its an extra £30 for both, all i can say is if we were on benefits we'd be buggered!!, i dont know how those who are on benefit would pay that!!, but then again they do get the odd payment sent :rolleyes:

Re: Gas?
 

Mine is £30 per month, and the heating is on 24/7, the programmer is able to be set to different temperatures rather than times, and is at a higher temp when we are in, but is never actually switched off.

Re: Gas?
 

All i can say is i must have a POO boiler, that or need to go with someone else:(

Re: Gas?
 

Sorry, been Xtra busy these last couple of days and haven't been online. No special tariffs but dual-fuel saver, as MargaretR, and pay by direct debit. Pay £23 per month electricity so overall costs similar to MargaretR. I live in Cambridgeshire (was born and brought up in Accy) but it gets cold here too, though not as damp here as Lancashire over an average year.

Re: Gas?
 

My gas in winter is around £35-£45 a week... I have a 4 bedroom house with three reception rooms. Heating is thermostatically controlled to about 19C from 7am till 10pm. I think I'm paying too much...will ask gas board to check meter.
