How much do you pay on bills?

[Lou0219]

Hi guys

I will be going on maternity soon and I’m slimming down our bills I just need average utility bills if you don’t mind sharing

How much do you pay on gas& electric ?
How much are your water rates?

Also if you can just say how much you use your heating etc & what companies your with as I’m looking to change

Thank you so much in advance

Oh & what size homes you have x

3 bedhome, Wales.
£110 fuel
£134 c tax
£31 water - unable to have meter so reduced
£25 phone / broadband
£38 perquarter TV licence
Have I missed something?

What do you mean reduced water rates? As you can’t have a metre? £38 per quarter for tv licence? They bill us £30 per month do you get discount for paying months in advance? Thank you x

4 bed detached, SE

water meter, aprox £80 half year

4 bed detached Staffordshire.
£120 pm gas and electric
£32 pm water bill on meter.

TV licence costs £150.50 a year, so should be £12.54 month. Could it be a tv package for £30 month?

Hi thanks for your reply I checked & it’s def just tv licence but years ago we did fall behind & ended up paying more to clear the debt but I doubt they’d keep taking the same amount x

Who is your gas & electric with?

@Lou0219 yes we share a stopcock with NDN so when we requested to go on a meter they had to refuse, but gave us a discount. Welsh Water..

Large 3 bed 17th century listed building (very draughty) in Abergavenny.

Electric and gas £300 quarterly (SSE)
Rent £575 pcm
Water rates £0 (included with rent)

Mobile £6 sim only both with Plusnet.

We have a Netflix package shared between loads of us - it’s £9.99 per month but pay on rotation so only costs £19.98 per year.

Gas and electric is with sse and we're actually in a little credit. I change every year though just use compare the market and put your useage in

My landlord won’t let us change supplier. Could probably get it cheaper but it’s a clause in our tenancy agreement that we stay with SSE 🤨

How is everyone's water so cheap? Ours is about 40 a month before baby and we live in a 2 bedroom. We drink bottled water so apart from showers and washing dishes/cooking it shouldn't be much
