I have a gas meter and an electricity key. I don't get bills. :suspect:

Obscene rises again,all the others will probably increase their prices too however.

So annoying when they make good profits already. What made me laugh was when they said, after this rise prices should be held until the second half of 2013.
Meaning that another price rise will come next year again too. The energy companies are really greedy in my opinion and British Gas is likely the worst of the lot.

I don't know if they do this in the UK, but here in California, they actually give discounts to people who are obviously conserving electric and gas during the winter. I usually get a rebate of about 30-40 bucks for not cranking the thermostat. So not only do i save money off the actual bill, but then you get an addition discount for not using too much.

Personally i prefer just wearing layers of snuggly clothing and using blankets. I have friends that keep their apartments like a sauna and i hate it.
