Energy bills are at record highs - and now experts say these might not go back to normal until the end of the decade.
But it’s not going to be £180 a month for 12 months. 3 months tops. It should be less in spring and much much less summer. balance out a bit on the summer months. Prob end up paying £100-120 a month over 12 months which unfortunately is the cost these days as rates have nearly trebled in the last 15 months.
Just checked my standing charge for my gas and electric meters. Both are with British Gas.
Electric 54.2p a day.
Gas 37.5 a day.
£335 a year just on standing charges. Is this the norm?
Gas standard tariff has gone up 141% since last October so thats more than double, and if you were locked into a good deal previously and now out of a deal it would have more than likely than trebled. Quadrupled if people had an excellent deal before October 2021 and that deal has run out.

Everyone I know/ speak to is struggling/worried with these energy prices. Many are substantially reducing usage/ wearing coats etc in the house, living in 1 room.
Not sure it's meant to be like this in 2022. People will die.
I dont understand how there haven't been riots.
For some perspective the cost of gas here in Poland has increased 8.5x within the last 9 months & electricity has increased by 3.5x
Just had my energy bill off shell.
I pay what I owe each month.
