When was the last time your metre was read? I'd expect that figure to rise sharply if it hasn't been read in a while![]()
It baffles me when people are shocked by their utility bills. You literally have a reading on the wall telling you how much you're using. Leaving it for a year without thinking about it is just irresponsible.
Edit: to be helpful, my electricity bill is roughly £30pcm so £360/year. That's me and my girlfriend in a large flat - two working adults with gadgets, laptops and tv on all evening. Our heating, hob and hot water is gas, for which we pay £35pcm on average (more in winter, less in summer)
Paying by monthly direct debit would have allowed this to be picked up much earlier. Why doesn't everyone pay monthly DD, much better than getting a yearly bill?
I take a reading every month. We're currently £13 in credit
The main thing which uses up electric is the oven and kettle. All lights have been switched to LED. Pi/Home Server are only on when we're at home, everything else is switched off.
I do expect it to rise in winter.
Most people, contrary to your post, do not check their electric metre every month, jot it down and do the sums - they being people with personalities and such.

You shouldn't even need to work it out. A meter reading every month should stop the actual costs snowballing.
The amount of people who call each day and go "MY BILLS ARE TOO HIGH I HAVEN'T USED THIS!!!" is stupid. Then having to sit there and explain how much stuff uses. Took me almost 3hours a week ago to explain to a man his bill which he refused to accept till I went bit by bit on how much his appliances where using and by the end he was like...."oh that makes sense..."![]()
GD is slow today.

After an ugly and confused first half, with a number of players being sent off for appearing just too damn high, the teams are back on the pitch: The challengers are short of a goalkeeper and their centre forward is missing in action for two out of every five minutes he plays.
I don't know about you, Reg, but to me it looks set to be a messy slaughter. Look, look, the banners are going up in the stands... What'd they say? 'Give Us Our £2000' Oh dear. The fans are close to an outright riot! And we kick off again...
It's Wimminz Bills: 0; Immersion Boilermakers: 1.
