Energy Prices (Strictly NO referrals!)

Its hard to fathom how someone in the UK can have the same bills per month in summer and winter.

I have a colleague in a flat who hasn't used her heating once

I get that, but even stuff like lighting, meals etc
I guess if you buy in cooked food /eat elsewhere that difference isn't there in your bills either.

She needs cats to keep her warm obviously.

All I see and hear at the moment are energy ads. Radio, trains. Big push at the moment.

I'd be the same mate, well I'd turn it on a little, for me 12c is fine.

It's bloody women, "ohhhh it's cold in here" when it's like 24c.....

Basically what I'm saying is it's women that are destroying the planet.

Constantly got the heating on
Iron
Washing machine
Hair dryer
Hair straighteners
Tumble dryer
Etc


....all the things that use a lot of energy.

Might as well be out there shooting polar bears.

Thing is there are proven health effects of being in sustained temps of like 12c.
If you can afford it its bloody daft to not heat your home to at least 16c.

The thing is im not cold and £200 in credit.

Tomato -> only is for electricity right? they don't do Gas?
If I change to Tomato lifestyle(from Eon Next) for electricity tariff, would the gas tariff be still with Eon unchanged?

Check their reviews first. Looks shady AF.

Rough January for electricity tracker. I've obviously saved previous months but ive probably paid more In January than the cap rate.

Flip side of this is I've used 1'236 kWh gas thus far in Jan. Which has been slightly lower.

As for the credit / paying bill. For me... I would want to have another savings account to put a bit away in for the higher months.

I just cannot be bothered with another account for something. Plus when I have £850 Ish in credit. Come April time I will get some of it back (I get the interest argument mind)

I can't imagine working my socks off 40+ hours a week only to go home and choose not to turn the heating on.
You put your effort in, at least let it make your life a little easier.
I don't skimp on my heating.

 

[Gazanimal]

Up to now 910kWh of gas for month of January (63.33kWh today, which equates to £4.00)
Electric is 195.54 kWh for the months (10.36kWh today, £2.47)

Not really using the heating much, comes on for a couple of hours each morning, along with the hot water then again later in the day.

Just seen the Tracker price tomorrow for Electricity - 31.72p for me. Urgh.

34.52 for me...

Sitting pretty on Tomato the last month escpeically after still keeping track of my old Agile prices still remaining crazy.

Been watching my use and the pricing on the MyWatts dashboard and it all lines up.

Who cares if they go bust in 6-months, theres a tiny inconvience of being bumped to another sub-optimal supplier and you can switch to your preferred right away.

Enjoy the benefits whilst it lasts. There are no user risks which is a nice change to most cases.

My Octopus gas tracker is due end of Feb. Probs roll the dice and renew another tracker session. Gas situation can't get any worse now we're on steady LNG.

Another expensive Agile day. Mostly above 40p all day, except for the peak evening period which is hitting the £1/kWh cap again. Tomorrow not looking much better thus far.
