Electricity... How Much Do You Pay a Month???

Just had a look at the leccy bill for the first time in ages... £65 a month!

Is that ridiculous, or have I just missed a stealth 'hike'?

£61 Three bed, electric hob and oven, with oil fired heating. Has been overpaying though by 140 in the period though so I expect that'll fall to about £45 to £50?

£40 I think, 2 bed semi, gas oven and heating, always power tools running though, and I usually get a good rebate every year from that payment

£0.

The mental gymnastics a landlord will employ to justify immoral actions is clinically fascinating. Just because something is legal doesn't make it moral.

How big are these panels? Also where are you getting the LED lighting from cos I've been looking for LED bulbs (apparently you can get bayonet cap ones)
