I have quite high bills, it’s quite a large detached 4 bedroomed house with a loft room too. How much do you pay and what is the size of your place?

But meredintof unless two people have exactly the same circumstances it really doesn't tell you anything.

People have different energy usages, live in differently insulated houses, like their houses at different temperatures etc.

There is absolutely no benefit in comparing with others, paying the least for energy is down to the individual.

The only possible reason I can see is if you've got the cheapest deal, you're being careful but you're still paying say £1000 a month you might ask how to get your meter checked but otherwise it's irrelevant.

We live in a very old, long and energy-inefficient 5 bedroom farmhouse. Our gas is £129 and our electricity is £48. This is for 2 adults and 2 children. We cook most things from scratch so the oven/hob is usually on for at least an hour every day and I have the heating on most days too.

700 euro, heating depending on oil prices for a 1000ltrs.
30 to 35 per wk electric, approx 1800 a year.
2500 euro altogether. Shock

Direct debit.
We have no gas. Electric is about £100/ month (cheap deal), and we have a couple of tanks of oil a year.(about £800 total at the moment)
