Bloody hell! I thought my house was getting hotter - was blaming the weather but it turns out the fucking heating had turned itself on! Boiler is in the loft and happily gurgling away to itself. The control thing is wireless and after turning the heating off at the start of spring I've not given it a second thought until I happened to brush past a radiator and felt it was on! I half want to cry when I think about the wasted gas especially as I have no clue how long it's been on for. I've literally had every window ope trying to cool it down as it's been like a sauna! I'm seriously dreading the next bill Sad

Chances are it's not been on for long, surely you'd have noticed as you did just now.

Can you find out what your usage is now so you know the worst rather than dreading it?

I'm sure I would have noticed before - I'm really hoping it's only been a few hours.

You could have what I have which is when you run the hot tap or take warm-hot shower the radiators start to warm up, caused by a dodgy diverted valve I believe. Once you stop running shower etc the radiator will return to original cold state.
