Meter reading day...

Discussion in 'General Discussion' started by art b, Mar 30, 2022.

  1. Anecdotally, most folks bills have doubled in the past year :(
     
  2. and British Gas website is broke so cant upload meter readings! Hmmm!
     
  3. Mine has certainly doubled in the last 18 months. And due to go up again, is it a further 40% later this year.

  4. I'm not sure where you'd stand legally doing that, but it's a very slim chance you'd get caught
     
  5. No need to panic, just upload your readings tomorrow or the next day once everyone else stops panicking.

    Is that from sandstone packing?
    That wood is rock hard and full of salt it must be growing by sea swamps I made about 30 bird boxes out of it years ago they are still going strong.
    It's harder than the nails they tried to hammer into it

    • Sorry, we're experiencing higher than usual levels of website traffic.
      If you're having trouble logging in to your account, don't worry, you have until 9 April to give us your meter readings online for 31 March. Smart meter customers don't need to do anything as your readings will automatically be shared with us.

      If you're on Smart PAYG, you can use your emergency credit if you can't top up. You won't be disconnected between 4pm and 10am, so you can try again tomorrow.

      We apologise for any inconvenience.
     
  8. Pretty much the same on EDF, thankfully I don’t actually need to upload readings though

    Usual great British panic: toilet rolls, petrol, meter readings.
     
  12. Yes Indian sandstone...
    popular at the moment for patios here

    Not particularly eco friendly
    or good for the Indians producing it..

    But I get free fire wood from the waste..:)

    Sadly all these price hikes are something they can avoid, Russia isn’t the only supplier or country that has gas I should say, but we’re so servile we just suck it all up like peasants of old. Granted there isn’t a lot we can do about the price rises but we don’t have to just accept it as the norm we need to moan about it a lot. I’m sick of these money making so n so’s tbh!

    Grumpy of Surbiton!

  14. I'd blame the Tories ... well actually all governments who have ignored the need for an independent energy strategy.
