    Default Gas Readings

    Gents, bit of help please!

    On average, how much gas do you use per quarter and how big is your property?

    The creation of billions of galaxies each containing trillions of stars each with their own solar systems, some with planets that have evolved civilisations with billions of different life forms. OR The creation of just your imagination?

    Absolutely superb, thanks SA.

    Had a ridiculous 3 year old bill from a credit solution company, its only small (£60) so have paid it to avoid issues. But am going to write a whiney letter to the gas supplier, as they reckon we used 112 units of gas in 10 days. Dickheads. Suspect it was either the old landlord or the new tenants that supplied a second "final" reading.

If I get to be married to Barb I'll have total control of Sunnyvale and then I can unleash the shitnami tidal wave that will engulf Ricky and extinguish his shitflames forever.

    I wish mine was that cheap, average quaterly bill is about £300. but winter months can rise to as much as £500.

    3 Young kids under 4 so need heating on most times.

    Having cavity wall insulation and loft insulation redone so hopefully should save loads.

    Mine seems a bit high compared to others. Can we discuss companies and tariffs? I am even on a dual fuel one and according to comparison sites this was the best deal for me. Up for renewal in october so might have to change again.

    Don't take life seriously. It isn't permanent.

    Last time i switched, i got cashback by using certain sites. No different than doing it direct but got cashback. So something to consider if anybody thinking about switching.

    Live in a flat, by myself with the daughter visiting each week and stopping over. In the sumer the gas lasts me ages. The last time i put gas on was about 3-4 weeks ago which came to a £10 *goes to check the metre* and I have used £12 (as i've used some emergency gas)

    It does help getting showered at work.
