How much clearer can i be about the battery thing , i have stated many times that i found some in the spare room hence why i started using the torch , not brought a single one more for nearly a year, i use the torch for a few mins in the evenings and now long enough to feed merlin in the really early morning , not for hours

Leave me alone ! Lol

You are stark staring barmy!

Using a torch to save the odd penny whilst spending hours plugged into the internet seems a tad fucking silly tbh kaz.

Don’t short cycle batteries kaz.

Fully charge and then fully discharge, they will last longer

My super duper 3 year cheap tariff ends in 2 days. I live in a fairly new 2 bed apartment and my current quarter bill is about 180 - 220. I'm presuming its going to treble :(

Depends on what your kWh rate was.

Flexible Octopus for us is currently

Electricity 29.94p/kWh, 49.77p SC per day
Gas 7.51p/kWh 27.47p SC per day

Just took delivery of another 4 bags of logs I’m set for winter now, hoping to use as little gas as possible this year

 

[Kazzydeyna]

I’ve just fixed with shell energy. The per/kWh rates were about the same as before (fractions of a pence more per kWh) but the SC on my fas has dropped by 10p/day.
As I don’t use much energy in comparison to families with two kids at home, I’ve taken it until September 2024.
I may lose out of the cap drops in October but it gives me affordable certainty for the winter so I thought “why not”.
Last year was horrible not knowing what the latest cap fete was going to be. Never again.

Hey up Al. Just checked my EDF tariff and on sep 1st I'll be paying leccy 31.10 and standing 61.82(wtf)
Gas will be 7.54 and standing 29.11. So it seems that octopus is shittin all over my EDF. Can I ask, are you on flexible account for a reason ? I heard maybe they'll come down again soon? And also, do you know if them prices you quoted are still viable ? Cheers in advance mucker.

It was the default one we landed on when Bulb went pop. There was no point fixing in January when we were migrated over.

I assume they’re still available, they’re what I see when in their app.

The will come down a bit in October, when the new cap starts, but they’re not great at telling you what they are beforehand, in my expertise with them so far.

Cheers for the reply mucker. So would I be able to join, go on the variable, then lock in when they come down ? Or will I have to tie in to deal straight away ?

Probably worth speaking with them, but I assume you could just switch to their standard variable rate.

There aren’t any exit fees, so you could change to a fixed rate whenever you wanted.

standing charges are still beefy;

underneath this energy producers are still screwing everyone, however i disagree with him in that while some providers are loss-making, British Gas took this piss this year.
