Is it on? How long do you have it on, and what temperature?

I've turned mine on to come on a timer for 2.5 hours in the morning and 3 hours in the evening at 18c. Maybe that's a lot but I'm home most of the day and I feel the cold, plus the morning heating keeps the house warm most of the day. Last year I had it on for only a few hours at 15c and it was miserable. I have a nice amount of credit in the energy account so I'll see how November goes.

We are relying on the log burner atm to heat the downstairs. I don’t like heat in the bedroom.

I keep our house at 19 when our one year old is home and 17 when he's at childcare. We're coping with the bills at the moment, I'll have to rethink if it gets crazy, we moved this summer so I don't know what the bills will be like this winter

I turn it up to 20 when I’m cold, otherwise it clicks on at 18 downstairs and 16 upstairs I think. It’s not often cold here ( there is a lot to be said for a well insulated , energy efficient new build!)
