    Seemingly from today evergy bills will rise due to increased prices, but i'm on dual-fuel with british gas using a card meter for the gas & a key meter for electricity. Does anyone know how my prices will actually increase?, will this be done automatically via the key when i next buy energy or will someone have to come out & do it manually? :confused: I can't see how it can be done automatically tbh. When prices went up last time i can't remember anyone coming out to change anything on my meters.

    Hopefully someone on here can shed some light on this!, Google'd it but getting a whole load of mixed answers

    Keycards are a expensive way to buy power if you use gas/electricity constantly but fucking great if you are hardly in the gaff.

    As I said if you are out & about, go on a few holidays a year it works out cheaper to buy as you go rather then pay by DD.

    The rate at which you're snapping up tents, sleeping bags, crossbows, catapults and outdoor gear makes me think you're living in a home-made bunker at the bottom of your garden ;)

    :lol: at the comments. Cheers though for all the help! lol

    I agree it is actually cheaper to use the key/card if ur away anywhere etc, but in the winter it's a bit of a cunt as it eats the money.

    Had EDF at the door again the other night giving me their crap about how they never put their prices up etc :facepalm: same shit different company

    me and our lass have just sorted a new flat out recently, and it not having a pre-pay key was one of my want's on it, you could potentially spend a fortune in the winter!

    gas combi for the water - i dont use much like hardly any , maybe a bath a week , huge double bath thou , doubles as a pond for the ducks some days, shower rest of time ... if i stay at my home for next 10years i may change my stove to a stove with back boiler , but hard to intigrate with combi boiler system as back up , or for when i sell house its more appealing to the less tree hugger type person

    I've had a think about getting dry meters installed, but when i work it out i am allot cheaper using the card & key by a fucking mile. I'll pay more in the winter, but if i had dry meters i'd pay in the summer what i'd pay in the winter.
