Energy Suppliers

Hi all.
No son has not got PC on all night.
I will be looking into this tomorrow I was going to do it today but other things popped up as normal.

Shall keep ya all posted though.
 
Hmmm I shall look into that actually I know he does just click click click away LOL and I have formated before due to him just being click happy.

I shall probably test by turning all computers OFF at the wall and see usage in morning ETC :)

Hmmm wife has some chrimbo lights up and on now so yeah they seem to eat electric :(.

Not going to lie some times this meter is a damn pain LOL always watching it ETC ETC

Ok little update.

Turned off computers at night and still was about the same usage over night.
I turned off a few things and check consumption and nothing realy used a huge amount I think its just all the little things adding up to about 400w usage per hour IDLE at night.
Any way still looking into it :)
 
My house uses around 0.3kw idle, so about right.

I use about 20Kw a day, but that is with storage heaters, hot water tank on a schedule and I run a 24U half height rack with 2 servers and Ubiquiti gear throughout. Plus a beer fridge.
 
jesus and yet still only 20K a day.

Hmmmm I do have a server but I turn it off due to using enough elecy as it is wish I could run it 24/7.
Thanks for replying any ways intersting to compare with other :)
 
hi all well I have made the plunge and went with BULB also used a link so shall be getting £50 :)

Thanks Mark if ya reading this.

bit odd how it gives ya the £50 though I thought it would be a letter with a scan code but nope after first topup they do it VIA bank transfer using there partnered company?.
 
Sounds odd. Bulb credit your account with £50. They don’t send you £50. Did you use an official referral or a third party?

hi mine says:

Daniel has joined Bulb
Good news mark,

Daniel has decided to join Bulb. Once they've made their first top up after 20th Jan we'll pop £50 credit into your Bulb account. Keep up the good work!
 
so why do i need to give bank details...I can only imagine its because I am on pre payment meters so they actually dont have my bank details ETC though BG used to just give us a letter with XX amount on it as a barcode due to dual fuel each year.

are you guys on direct debit?.

also thanks Mark :)
 
ah TBH suppose thats why then.
they dont use letters with barcodes ETC?

Any one else got pre payment with BULB and had to give bank details for the £50?

Any way thanks again all

Had an email from MSE saying I'm paying too much with Bulb, their comparison is saying Outfox the Market is cheapest for renewable energy (as I want to stay green!) but their customer service is rated poor - is anyone else with them and can let me know what they're like?
